George,
I've known a lot of folks to eat possum down in your neck of the woods. They must not know the rules of BBQ apparently. It ain't bad either, stuffed with sour kraut and sweet potatoes on the side...... Destry

I am picking up four muskrats this week that were traped out of the Ottawa Shooting Club tomarrow. Rats out of a marsh are much better than those out of of a ditch.
They will be stewed in cream corn ala mashed potatos and fresh french bread, yummy the hell with BBQ sauce. BTW I par boil them for about two minutes that I have added two three spoons of baking soda to but watch out as they can boil all over the stove making a real mess. This par boil really cleans them off in a Roger as in FG |

Gentlemens:
Welcome to the Mushrat Forum! "....They may look like rats but are not the common house type. " Everyone knows the best rats come from Norway.  FWIW. the two extreme ends of the palatablity scale for wild creatures are ruffed grouse at the top and porcupine at the bottom. Both are unchallenged at their positions. I ain't never 'et no mushrat, but it will no doubt fit comfortably between these two. Glenn |

I will get Dave Purnell's report tomorrow at tables B-4 and B-5 at the Baltimore Show. Dean, how did you find out about the rusty DHE 16?

Bill, sometimes word just seems to get around through the 'network' and in this case Robin happened to tell me he had seen it at the coastal gunsmith's shop who bought (?) the gun and determined it couldn't be saved and decided to part it out. I learned of it just a couple of days after I bought the stock and forend wood (from two different sources) for my project gun so I never even called the gentleman about the wood - knowing the metal parts were way beyond resurrection.

Destry: Marsh Williams used to say that when a possum fell into the mash the resulting semi-clear product had a distinctive taste all it's own. He set it aside for his Northern customers and named it (what else) "Ol Possum"

Bill, I bought a 1 frame stock that I was hoping would fit on a 0 frame, either a 20 or 16 gauge. It wasn't close enough to even try it on those, but it did fit quite well on a 1 1/2 frame 12 that had a poor replacement stock. Good luck with it, I hope you have better luck with the 0 frame than I did.
