The Lost and Found List

[Hammer Gun]

Bill, I bought them from a walk in at the Greensboro gun show. He was walking around and came by our table with a set of barrels in a sleeve I ask what he had and he pulled them out. Of course I bought them the were in good condition. I also posted the barrels on the WTB site for a possible trade for the 1 frame 16ga Vulcan brls I am looking for Now here is the kicker those barrels must have been made along with the gun for a left handed shooter, because the barrels are Right barrel I/C and the Left Full BWT Right brl .042 Left brl .050 at the thinnest place measured to 15" in from muzzle. On top of that he was from Pilot Mountain and told me he had a 16ga hammer gun if I would like to see it he would bring it the next day. He did and also brought a grade 2 10ga that my son bought. I am flabbergasted that someone owns the " rest of the story" I will e-mail you Bill

Bill, I cannot get the e-mail to go thru comes back as undeliverable, call me 540-745-6991

I got the email, Gary. Thanks for the information about how you got the barrels. I just remember I know where the forend is, but I may not be able to get it. No big deal, I should be able to find a forend. Sorry I don't have the 16 gauge barrels you are looking for. Yes, the Lost and Found thread works. For the readers, the gun letters to a store in Berwick, PA. and was made with 30" cylinder and full barrels, just about like Gary described them. 7 pounds, 8 ounces. This is the back end that wore the two sets of Bernard barrels that were reunited with the lost CH "Charleston Gun" last year. So now that story comes full circle.

I have a B grade splinter ejector forend for a 12 ga B grade that had a Beavertail forend as noted in the book, so this must have been sent back to Remington for the splinter forend. It is new with Remington colors full checkering and B grade engraving on latch. If anyone has this gun let me know otherwise next week I will be puting it in the for sale forum. Serial number 224385 Eric

Just a short note, Talked to Bill, the barrels are headed home to be reunited with the stock and receiver! This lost and found works, they are really nice barrels and I hope Bill will post some photo's when he puts her back together, will be listening for that sigh when they are rejoined. Gary

[Bill Murphy]

Gary and I just arranged everything and now the gun that once wore the two sets of Bernard barrels from the famous "Charleston" gun will be a whole gun again. Two "Reunited Guns" in one year.

Murphy must be livin' right lately for providence to be smiling on him like this.
