you are correct Murph...My apologies. Ken was a friend of Kerr and a skeet shooter from California that shot occasionally with Kerr's son in law Russ Long. They were both friends with Robert Stack who shot with Kerr on the All American Team.

I wish I had recorded the serial number of the 12 gauge CHE Trap/Skeet combination gun that sold on Gunbroker more than ten years ago but all I took from the ad was a 3-in-1 picture of it.
Judging by the quality of the photos, it could have been from Ivory Beads. No Wait.... I just found more pics!! . .

ELVIS. Elvis Presley. "The King." A great narrative about him came from Jerry Knight, who was Alex's head man in the gun department at Kerr Sport Shop. He said that a few days before Christmas one year, Elvis was in the store buying guns for some of his friends as gifts.
There was a customer off to the side looking at a display case that held nothing but expensive Browning over-under shotguns. Presley went up to the gentleman and commented on how nice the guns were. The man agreed, but said they were way out of his price range, since they were all probably in the thousand dollar plus area. Elvis asked the guy which one he would buy if he was purchasing, and the fellow said probably the Diana grade with the gold inlay. Elvis then went back to the counter where Jerry was, and as he left said to Jerry, " When that guy gets ready to leave, take that Diana grade shotgun out and put it on the counter and give it to him. Tell him Elvis said Merry Christmas." Jerry said he did just that, and he thought the guy was going to faint when he received the gift. Awesome story about "The King." |

Dean I have no idea who did the engraving on that gun. None of it is std for a GHE grade. It's my go to sporting clays gun for the last 15+ years.
