Re: Early round top Sporting Rifle

little late to the game on this thread. My curiosity has come into play as it appears that both two piece trigger guards are associated with a single set trigger. Just wondering it there is a connection.

Re: purple hue bolt handles

Re: Remington 90-T Grade "F" Premier

Here are some pictures of the Richard Heckart 90T. It is not the F grade 90T that I had a chance to buy and turned down not knowing what the seller had. It had gold inlays. The seller is the same one that sold the Heckart gun. These pictures are from the Trap Shooters website.
