Michael, is there a Robert Petersen connection here somewhere? From the timing of our friend Ken Georgi's purchase, I am thinking he may have bought the rifle at Littlejohn's and it may have been a Petersen gun. The article in the Guns and Ammo Annual may be a clue since Petersen owned the magazine and patronized high end gunsmiths. Also, Petersen's publications wrote of August Pachmayr's early efforts in one G&A article I recall. Three of the old man's guns were pictured on the cover.
