Alvin: I wish to thank you for your reply. I am really envious of your acquisition. Jus t a few years ago I did something really stupid....I sold off my entire collection of BHs, mostly all stocked, including an Austrian proofed 1916 model, a bolo with matching stock, a Persian rig, etc. I am very sorry that I ever thought of doing this. The one BH I did not have was a cone hammer. Had a chance to buy a matching rig at a gun show here in Wisconsin at one point and foolishly passed on it. I still think the vintage BH is the best looking gun ever. I just picked up a stocked (non-matching stock) Austro-Hungarian BH dated 1916 and unit marked to the A-H air force. Now I am back up to one BH in my collection and looking for more. Well done on your acquisition.
