Dam-16.Still at the "Chippin & Chewin" Had some Heavy HI-End Shotguns to "Re-Build, Re-Furbish,Re-Stock, Reproduce. "Best-Guns"(& Rifles)All". Several Very Happy Collectors are Rubbing & Oiling their "Back to All Original" Examples of "Best Quality Guns" Built from the Period 1819 thru 1999..Had Fun on my visit to Jim Julia's with Cap't James Fender, The examples of "Best-Guns & Rifles can be seen on their website.(I hope they advertise here on Dave's "Site"??) This coming auction has some really Good examples of"BEST" American Shotguns, some in their original condition, both wood and metal. Some, sad to say, have been"Re-Furbished" to Non-Original patterns, shapes,and differ greatly from "Factory Specs."& photos taken of the Original Owners with the Original Gun. There is some nice Documentation that a Good Friend of mine has put in the auction to go with Ansley H. Fox Sr# 31088,The H.E 12b.....Several "Well Known Authors & Photographers"( Myself Not Included in this Group as I Stripped the gun down and shot"Good Photos of all the Important Parts) they are "Poo-Hooing"(Bo-Wooping) the gun as a Phoney!!!! To date I've spoken with 14 doublegunshop.com Readers and "Many" SSM.
