Because, Stan- I am 75 and not equipped with digital camera skills, and don't follow the outlines given on this forum for posting. Instead, I e-mail fotos to friend Raimey Ellenberg, and he has posted them for me from time to time. Fair enough? RWTF

I am older than dirt and as they say old dogs cannot or do not want to learn new tricks.Bill probably spends hours cleaning his guns and has no desire for learning how to post pictures. Bobby

Dam16 is correct. I have a reputation as a curmudgeon, especially in PGCA. I still have my first flip phone and still drive my '74 Country Squire, am starting, slowly, on the restoration of my '79 Harley Low Rider. I do have some published pictures of my guns. There is the DGJ article on John Phillip Sousa's Daly Sextuple, and a Remington Journal article on Sousa's Remington Model 10F. On the Ithaca subforum on Shotgunworld, you can see Walt Snyder's pictures of my Sousa Grade Ithaca Knick, one of ten according to Walt. I'll get right on this picture stuff. The Fox Collectors site seems to have some new tech that is user friendly. I am an early life member and have some interesting "BIG" Foxes to show. Eightbore.

Franc, I love hammer guns also, and am anxious to show off the great Purdey. The week I got it, I was still laid up and couldn't shoot, so I took it to the range with three boxes of good English cartridges. I lined up the boxes on the gun rack and let my buddies break in the Purdey. We all had a good time that day.

I agree with KY Jon, If you are not careful, it is easy to find out who someone is and where they live. It would be very easy for a criminal to monitor the posts of a noted collector, learn something of the value of his guns and also learn that he has headed west for a week of prairie bird hunting...

I don't know if eightbore has the guns he claims. I do know I have argued with him about using a barrel wall thickness gauge which I believed too inaccurate to get good readings. However the next time I had occasion to use a barrel wall thickness gauge. I reluctantly followed his instructions. I got readings that checked out. I would think anyone that can use one of these infernal gauges knows a thing or two about old shotguns. I believe eightbore is for real.

Tough crowd. You'd think the poor guy voted for Hillary Clinton.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
