According to all the research I could do, and all that was done by a few authors who wrote books on the subject, I am the man that made the first true sporting rifle in 2 bore in history. A left hand cap-lock monster with a 36' barrel named King Kong.

I know that may been braggadocios, but it is true. I would not say dogmatically I am the first, but so far, all records we have been able to come up with say I am the first.

It was made for a former member of this forum, "Big Dog" Ken Greenlee. It was sold at auction a while back.
