Hello everyone. I'm new to the board, as well as being a new Parker owner, so I thought I would introduce myself by posting a picture of my "new" Parker and the first bird I've taken with her.
I had a chance to take her out to a popple (or poplar to those in the rest of the country) thicket in northern Wisconsin last weekend, and had a little luck. Loads of 3 drams of FFg and 1 1/8 oz. of 7 1/2 pattern well, and did the trick on this morning.
The 12 ga. Parker is a grade G hammer gun, with 30 inch damascus barrels, #1 frame, with a serial number of 45,xxx, made in 1885.
Sorry for the low resolution of the picture, but unfortunately the only camera I had on me at the time was my cell phone.
I've greatly enjoyed browsing the board till now, and hopefully I'll have more pictures to post in the future.
