I really don't think much has changed over these many years. A great host of guns have come and most have gone as I either traded, sold or passed them to others.
One constant has remained. An appreciation for a gun that seems to have a soul, if you will.
Their cosmetics are mostly all different but each has an elegance and appearance of grace. Be they solid 10 gauge wildfowlers or gracile small gauge bird guns. Beautiful Damascus, exposed hammers of elegant cast, and wood that could grace a high alter piece are all appreciated.
So too is my Quail Hammerless.
I suppose that not much could evolve as I started early to appreciate what is beautiful.
Best,
John
