Well C.O.B certainly didn't maintain control And then the SOB sucked me in late Sunday (I was being good didn't even think about pulling out the checkbook) but no...Rich has to come along and the next thing I know I am going home with an English gun, How did that happen....

It hasn't made it to Michigan yet as it needs a little trigger work. The Grouse will fall from the sky like rain when I enter the coverts with this jem of English craftmanship....Hell who am I kidding it will blow the leaves off the trees and shed bark just like the rest of them...but I will look good doing it

To own a Holland & Holland has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. To finally be able to get one and in a small bore is iceing on the cake. Unfortunatly a couple of very nice Parkers had to leave the nest
