Gun is now up with no reserve & $5oo. bid on it.

Gary sent me a sample piece of rib they matted and it looks great --- as good as out of the factory. He also hired henry, Henry did most of the work at Andy's as well as operating the rib matting machine. FWIW

My 50 years of experience tell me that going less than first class will always haunt you. Once the gun has been finished, you'll always think, how much better this would have turned out IF I had spent a few more dollars. I know, I never went first class many years ago was was always aware the piece ...

Mr. Bill --- Dewey already has it back at the shop. Sorry but didn't get any pictures, however, Dewey said he'd take a few. Looking forward to scratching a few lines for you. ken

Gents, I have had the honor of engraving this piece Mr. Dewey has churned out. It is so much nicer than the pictures show !! It will be on display at the Vintagers in Md. soon. Ken

Mr. Bill ..... I engraved a Win. hiwall for Glenn that would pass for never left the factory new & unblued. The action was so bad that it was all but given to him.

Two excellent men come to mind, Both are members of this board. Doug Mann 815-932-4190 and Boone Berlin 910-220-3332. Both are somewhat backed up as both are very good. Doug has done one piece for me & will soon do another. Boone has done two pieces with another one in line. As an engraver, I'm ...

Thanks for the geads up -- absolutely great ! When are you going to color case it OR, are you waiting to have it engraved first ? Ken

Wellll, that do make a big difference in the cost. Ken

Laxcoach --- thanks ol boy. I doubpt the dealer would want to spend the loot to have itr done. Ken

AND, that's going to set you back more than a little bit.

Well, I received a Fox 12 ga., 30" dbl yesterday that I bought on the net. The ser. # is 465 and it has three screws that hold the trigger plate down. Bores are great --- needs new stocks, all surfaces are clean of finish which is okay as I will attend to that when gun is restored. This piece h...

By building parts ---- you do mean collecting them rather than making them I assume ? If it's the latter, my hats off to you ! ken
