Thanks Mike. That's the spitting image of an Erik Nording Freehand (also Danish) I had until recently. A Peterson Aran Fishtail and McClelland's Frog Morton typically find their way into my vest when I hit the water.

Beautiful gun by the way.

Cheers
Marcus

Classic shotgun, classic setters, classic gamebird, wonderful americana here folks. Now why oh why did the 16 ever fall from the graces (rhetorical). Beautiful gun sir, and a joy in the covers im sure.

That is a beautiful gun. I have a 12 gauge PHE from about 2 years later that I love. Like yours, there are no factory records.

I believe he's still alive and kicking. Would be about 73/74 I think.
