I've been asked to do a presentation on C grades. I think I will particularly discuss and show engraving styles and variations according to different periods. While I have some C's, a larger sampling would be appreciated. If you have a C, please email me or post photos of the side and bottom panel engraving with either the SN or the year of the gun.
After the presentation, I will do an article for PP publication.
Thank you for your help.

By the way, I talked to Doc Van and he will bring a couple C's to the meeting, the first a wonderful 20ga and the other a highly interesting 12ga with two Parker barrels, one a smoothbore and the other grooved for slugs. One of the barrels has an interesting "made for" rib inscription.
