I was at the auction standing there watching . The barrels were cut the metal was loosely called refinished , the wood was refinished , the barrels had been cut , the wood to metal fit was horrible , gun was an 0 frame as well as I can remember the serial number dated it at 1902 or 3 . You missed nothing , if you had purchased it you woulda've had a small fortune in it to make it decent and it would always be not anywhere near the way it left the factory .

Completing my 00 frame 28 gauge custom project, my 0 frame 20 gauge repair and restoration to "age appropriate" condition, begin restoration work on my $150 grade early lifter short 10, and decide what to do with the D grade top lever 10 that needs re-jointing.

And bargain hunting!

My first order of business it to decide what two Parkers to add for my upcoming January quail hunt. I take 6 guns for a three day hunt and there are 4
that are a must go. The two additions will be 20's maybe a 28 (I'm already taking a hammer gun in 28) something from the dark corners of the tomb, perhaps the Damascus CHE or GHE 20's who knows it's a conundrum for sure

The next step is to keep my net worth intact at the Southern

Ike will get a girlfriend the end of spring or early summer depending on the breeding dates so a month to six weeks in the U.P. with Ike, Molly several Parkers and a couple of English guns is definitely on the calendar.

So the old saying is true, no one can match the endurance of the man who sells insurance. I'm working on 35 years this August, geez !
