Right gauge, right gun, right dog. Congratulations on your purchase! Very nice figure on that wood.

So, Dean, don't you, Dave or Danny know how to say "Go fetch" in a loud clear voice? I would have had Eva ask that question, but we lost her last week. She knew "Go fetch" as well as any pointing dog I have ever hunted over. I love your pups, but let's not make a deal.

Very sorry to learn you lost Eva, Bill.

That was B.G. (Before Grace) so we had to "go fetch" our own birds.

The pups all have wonderful new homes - no deals to be made there.

I am sorry too about your loss of Eva... I thought she was just a youngster.

This is the repro on Brian's webite. Galazan/ Krieghoff 16ga bbls fitted and broken through Pretty claro stock replaced. Stocks in my dimnsions. It hits where I look and it's not hard to look at. My favorite until we switch to Red legged partridge. Then I switch to the 30in. 28ga. Funny, original stock broke under recoil from 7/8oz target loads with the 20ga bbls.

That one won’t be breaking again in your lifetime Harry. The piece of curcassian we put on it was great!

Gorgeous Harry
Weren't the Galazan barrels made by Merkel?

Harry Sanders · 06-11-2018, 09:36 AM

Thought always thought they were Krieghoff. Don't have Tony's announcement any more.

The original 16 gauge barrels were made by Krieghoff and fit very nicely. The after market barrels sold by Mr. Galazan were made by Merkel and didn't fit nearly as well in my experience.

Krieghoff made the 16 ga. Barrels for the original 20/16 sets but I think George is right .
