As I told a good friend in North Carolina, a non gun guy, who sent me a copy of the article, "I am not disturbed that I can't afford to buy the gun, I am disturbed that I haven't gotten my copy of Garden and Gun yet." Murphy

Garden and Gun? Sounds like a magazine for people who shoot rabbits that eat the lettuce in their backyard garden.

Buddypol, as George will confirm, it's much worse than that. It's Southern Living invading Shooting Sportsman territory. I'm still renewing my subscription.

My favorite president's gun....sure wish I had the money for this one as I would definitely put on a new wing to the house to securely house it in.

Garden and Gun is a good magazine. Kinda off kilter in a nice sort of way. More Gun than Garden.

I'm not a AH Foxist, but like the LeFevers and Ithacas and Remington doubles I don't own or shoot, I appreciate them as being a very fine American made shotgun. But one of my hunting pals has two: a BE 12 with 30" Krupp barrels and a AE 16 made after the move to Utica- I have shot both of them and they are fine well balanced guns, I can see why the late writer McIntosh liked them.
My pal gets the AH Fox Collectors newletter, upon return from a morning not seeing any Geese (lotsa sandhill cranes though) we went back to his place for coffee, his copy had just arrived and I skimmed it.
I was under the impression that Teddy (also my favorite former president of all time) didn't want ejectors, so this would be a Grade F (highest grade in 1909?) but the front page mentioned the up and coming Julia's auction and listed it as a FE (ejector gun) which, if the case, would enhance the ultimate hammer-down price I should guess.
Can any of the AH Fox cognoscenti here clarify this please? My guess for the final price- way more than the Becker AH Fox recently sold that was apparently the second Buckingham HE- at least $400K, even before the seller's premium % is factored.

Teddy's gun is an F, no ejectors. It is right on page 10 of the Newsletter.
