Dave, was this the Rob't. Harris from Montana, who sold me my Parker DHE? If so I am truly saddened to hear of his passing. When did he die?

Thanks so much for posting the videos. As a farmer myself i really enjoyed the short of the barley ensilaging. Sure does look wet from all that rain you've had.

Here's to Old Glory. Long may she wave!

Happy 250th Independence Day to all who love America!

Neither my 3E nor my friend's 5E is signed.

I'll check my 3E soon. I asked my buddy to check his 5E.

I'm a strong advocate for Kick-Killer leather slip-on pads. They don't stay on, however. I found years ago that leaving them on a gun that is exposed to sunlight will cause a difference in color of the wood exposed to the light, as compared to that under the leather. I use them for gaining length of...

Dave, I did not know that you knew Robert Harris. He is a fellow i have long wanted to meet, but know that I may never get to. He and I have talked many, many times over the years since he offered me his beautiful DHE Parker 16/20 gun. He has been an invaluable source of information for me concernin...

Good luck, Mike. If I could offer a reference to a 'smith I knew could do the job right I wouldn't hesitate to do so. But, unfortunately, i can't.

I have also done a broken ejector guide pin repair with silver solder, as Frank said, and it worked perfectly. Has held for some 10 years or so, now. the process is described in the Technician and Restoration Forum here, entitled Broken Ejector Guide Pin Repair, on Nov. 02, 2015. Here is a "pas...

Nice score! And two triggers, too!

How is it choked?

I was shooting my Iver Johnson Special Trap Saturday afternoon with a bunch of younger guys. It dominated the field of Benellis, Stoegers and Franchis, all semis. I noticed that the front bead (it has both original ivory beads) seemed very large. It didn't bother me in shooting, but Frank's gotten m...

That is the man that first brought to the Internet the existence of Bo Whoop. He saw it at Jim Kelly's gun shop in Darlington, SC when it was there for restocking, about two years before the owner decided to send it to Julia's for auction. Poor man was nearly crucified for claiming he had seen it. I...

Alas and alack, no mention by Dave of my beloved, slender, petite little .410 bore.

Oh, how I would love to kill a limit of greenhaeds with those 3 3/4 - 1 1/4 lead loads one more time.

Here's a photo of the screwed-up forend lug, with the broken piece lying on top in position. You can clearly see where it broke off. It broke because someone in the past filed away the top of the lug, weakening it drastically. https://www.jpgbox.com/jpg/75810_800x600.jpg Here are the two types of si...
