I did as bit of trading and ended up with a Chambers Pennsylvania Fowler built by Mike Gahagan in the '90's, smoothbore, 46" 20gauge barrel, roundface lock, a small amount of carving on the stock and engraving on the lock, used, but in good shape.It arrived today and I have to say I`m impressed with it..It points excellent and is super light..Workmanship is outstanding..

Rickd, you did good!  That's one beautiful Fowler.  Dem ducks are in for a heap of trouble! ;D

I agree with Ironwood. That is one beautiful gun. But I think you rifle stand may be hard to move about  pnic ROFL ROFL

Beautiful....the only thing I can see wrong with it is with that 46" barrel...I am too short to load the thing.

one thing about a long barrel like that is if you don't get quick kill on the bear, maybe you can fend him off long enough that he goes ahead and dies, or maybe not

As pretty as it is, I would have to say I would have to compromise....get me something to stand on to load it.  Got me wanting one now.
