Stan since you know who owned this gun and that he was a pigeon shooter and ordered the gun to his fit, I'm guessing it has less than 2" DAC and is made for rising birds.

I can't imagine splitting up a two barrel set! I am not a purist, per se, but that makes my head hurt.

Thanks for sharing that link, limapapa.

I knew that he had suffered a stroke, but never felt right about sharing that information with the rest of the forum, as I was concerned that it might be an invasion of his personal life for me to do so. His wife had told me of that when I called after realizing he had been absent for some time from this forum.

Just so everyone can understand his "screen name", Run With The Fox (RWTF), his real name was very nearly the same as the famous Swamp Fox of the Revolution, Francis Marion. I'll remember his love for the South, and for grits, both of which I thought very odd for a Michigan native.


May God bless America and those who defend her.

Despite a penchant for driving some folks nuts, it wasn't intentional or mean spirited. He never met a tangent he wouldn't take. He was a good man. I once swapped grits for paper hulls with him. RIP, Foxy. Gil
