Mr. Mitchell, the answer is yes. I have been looking at Mr. Barclay's guns for years and had not seen just the right one except for the Blanch that he brought to Las Vegas a few years ago. It was a knockout back action sidelock damascus 2 3/4" with exhibition wood. But it was over $8,000 and I was shortly to leave for Africa again. If I could stop myself from going to Africa I could buy nicer guns. But the Army & Navy hit me just right. The stock dimensions are good for me at 6-2. The sidelever is fascinating and I badly need at hammer gun.
Thank you gentlemen for the new info. I'll keep plugging away at the 2 1/2" load.
