Reverend and His Gun
 
Recovering from a surgery....read everything...twice....so thought I would share some pictures of a Reverend and his gun! This gun may have been shown before but the story goes.....Reverend orders a 2 barrel set but gets one set with mismatched barrels. Documentation from Roy Gunther at the end.

What an unusual and beautiful gun! Thanks for posting. The reverend looks a bit intimidating!

Very nice!

I'm very impressed with the condition of this gun - it is remarkable!

Looks to have been engraved by H. Gough.

What a wonderful gun. Has it taken any pheasants?

Rick Roemer 04-12-2023 12:53 PM

Fire, Brimstone, and a 10 Gauge would make me a believer.!

Who was or is Roy Gunther ? I’ve not heard that name before .

Wonderful gun and history. I am assuming it is yours. Speedy recovery from that surgery. Bird season will be here in a few months! Have another late January SD hunt planned.

Commander Roy Gunther was a Parker collector and historian and was one of the authors of "The Parker Story" and was one of the first researchers to examine and record the Remington Parker archives.

No pheasants yet Garry. My sherpa has not been available to tote it for me!
