Thanks for the additional information guys. For the most part, I was trying to relate the small size of the frame to others for comparison. It has me very excited to find a "10" Hollenbeck SAC. I know what my odds are of seeing any SAC, how about a pre#5k '10'?
My question about the damascus was indeed about related companies including Ithaca, Remington, and possibly, Lefever.
Yes, I knew that I had seen that gun before. I went back and looked, from the dogs and birds, I would lean towards a different artist.
In my notes, I have a #28K 16 listed as an oddity, I believe it was a late first model. FWIW, I found a 16 gr.2 in the high #25K range that is also a first model. Just curious if you've seen anything higher than the #37K gun yet? I did find a #37K gun, but about 600 lower.
Thanks for the chat and the interest.
