There is a certain hunting lodge on River Charna Hancza........and that's where it would end up if I had it.
They don't know what AH Fox is, and it's higly productive wildfowling region in East Prussia, and I could shoot my fav. 36gm LEAD Rottweil 'Weidmannsheil' black-cased load through it.

Bet 9 out of 10 would keep the gun under wraps too!
To my knowledge, the family has been kinda nil on getting it back.
Anyone see a reward for the gun?
I see rewards for lost cats and dogs posted everyday day on telephone poles.


Signs on telephone poles don't last forever ....besides I doubt the loss of the gun worried Nash too much.

I still say the man that owns bO-whoop is a crook....and I think George L and the owner know that I'm correct.

That's why George L stuck his head in the sand...

The current owner is not a crook, but he has moral standards of a mold!
Gee, when are we going to stop talking about this "bang, bang" which amounts to little more then early "10lb" A grade? Whatever happened to the one that Ernest Hemingway blew his brains out with? Was it not a Purdey? Maybe we could talk about Teddy's Fox?

A number of years ago, someone purchased, for a significant sum, the WW2 "confiscated" (stolen?) O/U set that was Adolf Galand's. They then gifted the set back to Galand, who was still around at the time. This person that gifted them back knew that a wrong had been done, probably by an American, and was in a position to right it and did so. A very honorable gesture to be sure.

For those that don't know, Galand was the head of the German fighter forces under Goring.

Jagermeister, I believe the gun Hemingway used was a Boss, but I may be wrong.
