Brand new form Montreal Canada!

[Max Provost]

Thanks for letting me in to this Parker lover forum!:bigbye:
I have some nice double in my collection (mostly Darne and Idéal) but I never had the chance to own a Parker! But I sure been interested in them for a few years and I'm dying to get my hands on a G or D grade 12 gauge for sure!!!
It's just that they don't come up often around here so...

Anyway, really appreciate all the infos around here! Seems like a nice fraternity too!
Is there a buy and sell section to this forum?

Thanks!
Best regards, Max

Salut Max. Nice to have another Canadien on the forum.
Cheers,
Jack

[Max Provost]

Salut! Merci, de quel région? I'm actually planning on going bird hunting in Saskat in the next years! Heard it's really great! Only have ruffed and spruce grouse around here...

[Jack Cronkhite]

La ville de Regina. Vous pourrez trouver tous les oiseaux ici et meme tirer sur eux - sauf les faisans qui sont reserves pour les residents de la Saskatchewan. Domage :(
Starting to strain my french.
Cheers,
Jack

[Max Provost]

Super votre Français!!!:clap:
I can't wait to go! My armorer goes every year and comes back with the most amazing pictures filled with sharptails, hongroises and phaisant!!! (they get to shoot the landlords limit!!!)
Hope I'll be able to find myself a nice Parker to make the trip!!!:)

[Jack Cronkhite]

Pour vous faire saliver mon vieux !! Pour le chasseur, il n'y a aucune coin du monde meilleur.
Bienvenue en Saskatchewan !!

For the rest of the gang, just amping up the envy factor to hunt in a land blessed with ample game. You still have to work for it though.

Cheers,
Jack

Wow!!! Superbes photos! Did'nt know you guys also had lagopèdes over there?
Are those lesser snow geese or large ones like we have over here?
Thanks again for the crazy pics!
Regards, Max

[Jack Cronkhite]

We have the lesser snow geese. Interesting facts HERE (http://www.hww.ca/hww2.asp?id=51)
You would have both lessers and greaters coming through Quebec. The greater snow goose migration route is rather narrow compared to the pretty much continent wide migration of the lessers.
Interesting facts for greater snow geese HERE (http://www.hww.ca/hww2.asp?id=44)
Now if you want to know every species of bird in Saskatchewan, all 383 are listed HERE (http://avibase.bsc-eoc.org/checklist.jsp?region=cask&list=howardmoore) (the Passenger Pigeon is shown and noted as extinct). Those that are noted as rare or accidental are certainly that - I've hunted for decades and not encountered them. I did not know wild turkey have been surreptitiously introduced (gotta learn more about that) I have never seen a greater prairie chicken. And to think I content myself with a few roosters in the midst of all this bounty (no, we don't shoot the song birds etc etc) :)
Cheers,
Jack

[calvin humburg]

Welcome! Hope you guyes wasen't talking about me. There's a stright grip PH on cabalas gun libary chocked good for phez and such. Got a bad repair on heel I'll bet it could be bought a little less than listed price. And I don't think you would have to pay sales tax. IMHO a great starter Parker. I would own it if I didn't have a money pit lifter I want like new once again. best ch

[Jack Cronkhite]

Calvin: Naw, just jawin' about great huntin' in Saskatchewan. Adding a Parker into the mix would make it that much more special. First Parker and first hunt in my great back-yard would be a treat for anybody smitten by the hunting bug.
Cheers,
Jack

There were a couple Vh And Trojan guns in decent shape at a small Burlington Vt. Gunshow last week which is not far from you. I don't know what would be involved now with getting a gun into Canada. We have Canadian trap shooters in Derby VT that have bought guns in the US and took them back. We also get some Canadian shooters at the Vermont state sporting clays shoot about 40 miles south of the border.
There is another shown in Barre Vt. Feb. 5th and sometimes it has some Parkers and sometimes not.
Let me know if you want me to keep an eye out.
GO HABS!
Eric
