Re: Model 12's are way cool

Nice shooting Frank. Very good looking M12s. I killed my first Ring Neck with a M12 16 bore, still have it. That was in 1952.

Re: Early Remington fit and finish!

It certainly begs the question, "What the hell was wrong with Ansley Herman Fox?" After a few years of shucking a Winchester Model 1897 for the big W how could he be so blind to the future that he went ahead and founded two companies to manufacture side-by-side doubles -- Philadelphia Arm...
