Actually I bought a 32" VHE trap, double triggers, ball grip and leather faced pad from him 20+ years ago after a trip to his shop in PA. He could'nt sell it because it had double triggers so he cut me a good deal on it. Told me no one wanted a DT trap gun. The gun lettered to a T and eventually I found out through the G&H/Bob Beach service that it was owned by David K.E. Bruce, head of the OSS in London during WW2, son of a US Senator from MD and married to a Mellon- at the time the richest woman in the world. He might have been a character but he had a hell of selection of guns to choose from.
