SW Trap

Post by birdawg »

Is there any estimate of how many Sterlingworth trap guns were made. Is there any record of small bore trap models?
Thanks

Number one, who is going to get in there? Number two, who would have the tenacity to compile the information from some 96000 12-gauge, 28000 16-gauge and maybe 17000 20-gauge Sterlingworth production cards?

TOOLMAN lives up there in those minuscule states. If anyone could talk his way into Savage, I'd think he would be the one to do it. Then again, TOOLMAN doesn't have much truck with anything below an X-grade!!
