    Pedersen

    It was Maj. Gen. Julian S. Hatcher, the famous author and gun expert of the US Ordnance, who was told by no other than John Moses Browning that he considered Mr. John D. Pedersen "the greatest gun designer in the world".

    He on the other hand always seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time with his inventions. And this rifle follows the same rule.

    I did never expect to own one of those, but I must had been in the right place at the right time to get this one ... Britishicon trials piece. And for the end, a comparison shot of his most popular two developments in one picture.
