Joe, The lamp that Drew posted is a brass miniature. Maybe 20 inches. Did anyone notice the Parker Bros style hinge pin? I guess it could have been modeled after an early Fox pin gun or I've seen that hinge pin on an early Stevens as well.

Does anyone know where (distance from muzzle) the bulge and crack were in the Clarke?

Interesting point that Buzz makes that repairing a bulge may weaken the strength of the barrel at that point. Thanks again for all of the good comments.

This is from page three.

I truly miss Tony. In many ways he was the most interesting man on this board. Fearless in trying things, easily meeting men in the trade and getting information from them to further his gun education. We are diminished by his early loss. Hope his family are doing well.

Me, too, Jon. And Doug (PA24), a good friend and one of Tony's mentors.
