Agreed. Kimble was a 10 gauge guy, only once they banned his choke bored 6 gauge muzzle loader. And Carver was a 12 bore gentleman, when 10's ruled the day. But, there's a pretty big difference between a 10 Vs 12 and a 12 Vs 20. Today the Parker 20 gauge SBT is a rare and valuable find that any Parker collector worth his salt would die to have as a part of their collection. But back in the day, it was an expensive novelty. So, who was the guy who first owned her? He had to be a fascinating character. As is her present owner
