Beware of scammers.

I have heard that the Ilion Archives is being or has been liquidated. Who is handling this sale and how do we get information?

Find a Lyman skeet choke for your gun. They are not rare on ebay, just a bit pricey.

It is a beautiful 141E, quite different from my Ennis engraved 141E. I believe mine is a bit later. I believe it now lives in Delaware. Bill Murphy

My 141 E was signed by Carl Ennis with his characteristic "E" in the engraving. It's too bad that your gun is missing its E grade stock and forend.

The Runge 32 in the coming auction seems to be buffed up a bit. Does anyone see it differently than I do?

In my 60 years experience, I would estimate 45% field, 40% skeet, and 15% trap. Lots of skeet guns out there, but not many 28" barrel skeets.

Sorry I never got pictures of my 141E sent to Gene. The gun was sold to a Delaware collector before the pictures could be taken. It was an outrageous gun and I would like to have it back. I think the ribbed forend was a one of a kind on a graded gun, but clearly original because of the extra fancy ...

Reluctantly, I sold the ultra rare 141E, Ennis engraved .35 Remington. I would like to have it back, but I think the new owner would not think the same way.

I guess no one is interested in these guns, like a 141E, a 10E two barrel set, or a 10F two barrel set owned by John Phillip Sousa. I guess I'm out of here.

Gene, I have recently purchased a very nice 10E two barrel set. I wonder how scarce they are? I still own the John Phillip Sousa 10F that I wrote about in the RSA Journal and they look great together.

I have seen Krieghoff gunsmiths build up and recut trunnion openings while I watched. Maybe they would do a Remington for you. They seem to think it is a normal piece of gunsmithing.

Wow. Here it is six years later and I found my Wilbur Cox poster at a down south auction last month. I had to pay for it, but it is worth it to have my display complete with tin Indian, poster, and target coins. There is also a photo of another Remington pro included.

Gene, is there any more information about E Grade 141s? I am not active in RSA affairs any more, but I hope you enjoyed my article on the Sousa 10F.

I think I have a stock around here somewhere. I would like to find a Sun Grain 870 forend so I can put a gun together.

Sounds like a serial number to me. If it is on the bottom of the receiver, that is what it is.
