A few more BH grades:

(From the top: An early 12, a very late Damascus 16, and a 1904 20 gauge)

BTW, there should be a rule that anyone who owns a B Grade, or above Parker needs to be a PGCA member.

Very nice BH Grades there Garry,

If you ever need to move the 20 along, please let me know. I love the Fine Damascus pattern there.

Gosh, Dean, I'm not sure. I've been sorting photos (a foul weather chore to bide my time). The guns are packed in the safe. When I do my Spring wipe down, I'll check. The 16 gauge, as I mentioned, is a very late gun -- 1924 if I recall correctly. I imagine it was a special request (it was given to a NY banker according to the order letter I have). The pattern on it is not as fine as on the 20 gauge, but beautiful nonetheless.
