"Boy, if that gun sells for anywhere close to $52,000, I wonder if I should send my DHE 20ga 24" to Brad B. to get re-case colored? This is a serious question, I had not considered it before."

Leave it alone Bruce the gun is outstanding as it is.... So the answer is "NO"

Well ,I thought since we were posting some pics. of short barreled rare featured guns ,I would toss this one in the ring . This gun according to TPS is the only Factory Built ,25" Barreled 28 Gauge in DH Grade . Notice the English Drop Points ,According to the letter the gun was sent back by Kirkwood Bros. Boston Mass. ,to Parker to be restocked same as original . and when you pull the Trigger guard sure enough the stock is stamped Kirkwood Bros. under the Guard ! By the way ," Not For Sale Yet " Russ

Nice gun Russ. It looks like an early example. Is it on an O frame like most of the early 28's?

I've enjoyed reading this discussion, and thought you might enjoy a few pics of my original finish GHE 24" 12 gauge, serial no. 213462 (documented). I had the camera out for a walk today and snapped a few pictures. Not sure what this is worth, but the dog's not for sale!
