Morning Ian,

IIRC, it was a Frederick Beesley 12 bore in a leather luggage case that came over on the QE II and the gift of a couple of Gene Hill books.

Thx,

Bert

OK Bert, now we're on frequency.
It was a William Evans (from Purdey's London) bijou that I still have.
Yes, long time....popped lotsa 209s since then. I eventually completed my Gene Hill library.
I suspect there will be more pics in this thread.
Ian.

I stand corrected Ian; too many shotguns, too little time. I just remember the maker came from Purdey's.
