Default Zeros

The beaver tail gun is 30” VH in fantastic condition choked IM/Full belongs to a friend and fellow member here.

The straight grip gun is 30” also GHE no safety, choked extra full in both tubes. Minimum wall thickness of the barrels is .038, full pound heavier than another set of 30” zero frame barrels I have.

This gun was ordered by Frank Newbert of California in 1911, he was the commissioner of the state of California game and fish as well as a pigeon shooter and duck hunter. Held several pigeon and trap records at the time.




Both are special guns to shoot.

The guy who ordered the GHE In foreground, first picture.
Him a bit older in second picture shooting an Ithaca.
In third picture article note he is referred to as a "two cylinder man" , casting aside the pump gun. Would venture to guess the GHE I am caretaker of now may have been on some of those duck hunts.
