What can one say? It is the most colorful #3 frame 12 gauge 32" DH I have ever seen. Like a magpie, I am attracted to shiney objects and tend to take them back to my nest...:shock: This gun in the 119,000 range finds itself on one of a very interesting couple of pages of The Book. 7 columns of Parkers and virtually all of them are Grade 3, 4 and above. Nary a proletarian Parker among them. It must have been a very busy month for the engravers

Nice one !!!!

I think we'd all be weak if we had a chance to buy that gun !

Don, please bring that one to the Vintager's so we can put our fingerprints on it.

What a beautiful DH !

Don, tell us about those long triangular shadows at the brazed joint on either side of the lug?

Don Kaas 08-27-2009 11:45 AM

I noticed them too. I don't know. We'll have to give them a good look when I get the gun in hand.

Beautiful gun Don! I must be a "Magpie" too, because when I saw it, I wanted to take it back to my nest! :)

Don........

Do you know who refinished the barrels?

Don Kaas 08-27-2009 01:31 PM

No, I don't.

Those shadows look to me like just shadows. A photographic effect, nothing else. David
