Well back to what was bought this year, First I sold several 20 ga Hammer guns, was the caretaker for quiet some time, now they reside in new homes and are well cared for! The new additions this year so far 12gauge A1 Spl, and a 20 ga A1 Spl up grade that was bought by Otis Odum according to the hang tag in 1981, Both guns from Josh, When he sends me photos I will post them, My camera met with a unfortunate death, fell of my gator and the disk I was pulling sort of chopped it up!

The best laid plans of "Men of the Gun" often fall astray. I WAS doing great in liquidating some things I haven't shot and putting the money into some hunting adventures. To be honest the last couple of years have been pretty depressing and rather boring.
I left the Southern with three nice but not expensive guns, a DH 32 inch on a 2 frame, a 20ga Trojan and a very cool Winchester 1892 in 25/20. Years ago I sold a nice DHE 30 inch vent rib trap gun and now that I've discovered using 7/8th in a 12 and a modest supply of reloading components I thought I might like another one. I've been shooting some 12's for years mostly factory stuff in a Stephan Grant hammer gun as a prefer the small bores. August, Steve Barnet's step son brought a CHE vent rib gun to Hausmann's for me to look at. It left me cold however and I never even considered it. There was however a gun waiting in the wings that I asked him to bring with absolutely NO intention of buying. It's an AAHE on a 2 frame with 32 inch barrels. The grip cap is engraved Bay City MI Dr R Ballard and below that is C. Middleton. Now begins the search for information on Dr. Ballard and Mr. Middleton. Oh the gun is an absolute dream. Maybe August will sell some more stuff before my hunt in Texas this fall.....that or I might have to go back to work ![]()

Sorry about that Randy everything in my life right now is in a state of entropy. Graduation party in two days hiring a new office manager it’s just a complete mess. More details to follow. 30 inch VH 12 gauge in very nice condition I will send more photos.

A few more. Had an hour, ran to the club and shot skeet. Wow. Pulverization comes to mind. She's tight and a hoot to shoot! This might supplant the 32" VH even though it's a tad long LOP for me by maybe 1/2" but the pad is so nice I'm just going to leave it.
