Snipehunter, thanks for that picture. I live in the same general area you hunt, and used to do the same thing.
In times of low water, we have a number of huntable snipe bogs around the natural lakes we have in the area. My favorite though, was always the flooded pasture land I'd come across while quail hunting.
Legs and balance have become unreliable now, so I don't do that anymore. But I love the memories and your picture brought them back...Geo

Another Belgium masterpiece of a game gun surfaces and no one knows who built the damn thing. Par for the course.

I've hunted some pastures but usually down around Gainesville. It's tough sneaking up on them in grass no higher than in your yard.

Picture from last weekend. My bird season is just reaching the halfway point. So, how do those eat? Any recipes? I have no idea what snipe (or woodcock) are like to eat. I'd like to hear about it. I pass up shots every year because I dont' carry the right loads or tags but I wonder if I am missing out.

Are there no maker's marks among the other stampings that would indicate who the maker was on a guild gun?

They are closer to dove than anything else I have eaten. Milder than woodcock or duck. I have cooked them quite a few different ways but usually I wrap the breast in half a slice of thin bacon and cook on a hot griddle for 3 minutes on each side.

Probably not, but I'm thinking there possibly is some kind of mark inside the action.
However we may be approaching this all wrong. If we can get our hands on the retailer's accounting books of original entry there has to be an invoice and attached cancelled check made out to somebody.
The retailer paid somebody for that gun. That transaction has to be recorded someplace.
