Yea, I know it is not Friday yet, but just got my case from the dealer and decided to take a photo or two. For some reason or other a gun just looks good in a nice case, Gary

Gary, the Galazan case is an easier project than most of the case restorations we have gone through. I may try one. I think my three barrel case for my GHE 16 is a Galazan case, but not oak and leather. My little asparagus patch weighed in at over 75 pounds this year. How did yours do?

My two rows are 36 feet long, but 20 years old with more than a few crowns in the first row died off. 75 pounds isn't bad for a long time plant. Asparagus was $4.69 a pound at the Amish Market today.
