Grade 1 16ga on a #1 frame hammer gun 32 inch barrels.
BHE 12 #2 frame straight stock to a skelton butt, saftyless (pigeon gun?) and 30 inch fine damascuss barrels. I'm not a 12ga guy but I do like this one

Rich, what kind of provenance do you have on the pigeon gun? Do you have a letter yet?

Here are a few pics of the BHE, the hammer gun is haveing the stock tweaked at the moment.
The gun was ordered by C. E. Robbins of Fargo N.D. 12/15/03 choked full & full. Straight stock with a fully checkered forarm and a Silvers pad. It was returned by Mr. Robbins 12/2/07 to retarget to shoot 65% at 40 yards, clean, tighten and redo the barrels. It was returned again in August 1916 by J.E. Johnson also of Fargo, N.D. to restock the charge was $25.
