I have my Grandpa's Hamilton Model 27 in the back of my safe.... It's not nearly as pretty as the stuff Gary seems to pull out of his....

Karl, Two 0 frame GH 16s, one, an 1890s Damascus, and the other a 1920s fluid steel gun, also with 28 inch barrels. The last gun is a GH 20 built in 1920.

The back of my safe is not near as interesting, but there are some guns that havent seen the field for a good while--a Sterlingworth 20, 2 SW 16's, and a SW 12 pin gun, a Durstan Special 20 with ejectors and Lefever G 16, my first Parker, a 1 frame 16 28" did make it out for pheasant this year.

Charlie, Here's the safe-mate to the 4E 16, an earlier grade 4 12 gauge. It has as nice a piece of wood as I have ever seen, and sports what I believe is an original skeleton steel butt plate. Alas, no records exist for this nice gun.

I knew you could find something Garry... The GH 16 with the fluid steel barrels will work just fine for me ... let me know when and where to send the check |
