I just spent about an hour trying to duplicate this presentation from Still's forum. It wouldn't post "Too many Photos" so if anyone is interested...

Ron,

Point taken. Nice gun and the restoration does it justice.

Hi Gerben,

Thanks... No intention of fishing for compliments. I thought that it may be of interest to some of the members that don't visit Jan's forum much, if at all.

Just p***ed off because I spent the time to duplicate the post . After all of the tongue twisting and jury rigging to get it uploaded. It wouldn't post...

Nice presentation Ron... unfortunately, there is an eight (8) image limit (in the software we use for the forum) to be included in any one post, but you could always divide the post in half, and post the halves back to back to get the same results on this forum as you achieved at Jan's board.

John,

I should have thought of that, but it just didn't occur to me at the time.

Thanks...

Ron

Thanks for sharing!
It was the right ting to do, for preserving that piece of history.

Excellent piece of history and well worth restoring. Now it will tell its story for another century or so and do it in grand style.

By the way, there is no "~" in #*&"!?

Ron,

Thanks... I flunked English. Never could remember if it was I before E , except after "~" or the other way around.
