That is Bo Whoop? Doesn't look like it spent much time in the marsh ijn a punt! I wonder what Mr Puglisi will do when he bids on Bo Whoop!
Will he stun the bidders like he did with the Czar gun!
See the 22 Hornet double rifle on a H&H Dominion shotgun frame!
See lots of beautiful stuff!
My word, Mr Julia does get some lovely guns in. I'll look foreward to getting the sale list when the dust has settled!
Mike

ya think some dealer will have the phone bidder do the "quarter million" and scare off the other bidders like the Czar gun?

"It had a straight grip, no safety, and the name 'Nash Buckingham' engraved on the right barrel. In a letter to Edgar B. Caldwell, Nash wrote that the serial number of the original Bo Whoop was 31108. A search of the Fox factory records for that serial number however shows it was a 30-inch A-Grade shipped to Supplee Biddle Hardware Co. in Philadelphia, July 16, 1926. Other reports state the serial number is 31088"

I'd like to see the right barrel, first. Awfully exciting if real...

OK, I give up....what does "pteraplegia" mean?

Google found it in a book by Robert F. Jones and also one other obscure hit. That's it; 2 hits and no dictionary definition. If Jones made it up, the context isn't really clear to me.

The posted description doesn't say this gun is "Bo Whoop". It just says the gun was made for Nash Buckingham by BB and parenthetically states that Bo Whoop was thought to be lost for generations. I'm sure a lot of thought was put into that statement.

Thanks Steven.

He got "wing shooting" from "wing paralysis?" Those writers are a strange bunch.

Forget the Fox.

Look at that Boss O/U and that pr. of 12s. There's also a Boss DR. THOSE are nice guns.

Did Nash Buckingham own and write about those, too?
