Uncle Bill's VH 16 Gauge Ready At Last
Last fall my cousin gave me two of her fathers Parkers. One is a VH 20 which was ready to go with the exception of a chip in the toe of the stock and the other a VH 16 that was missing most of the screws, the cocking lever and the trigger guard bow. Plus she gave me a set of DH 12 gauge barrels for a #2 frame. I've been shooting the 20 and want to make sure the rest of the 12 is not in my cousins house before I have the barrels fitted to the #2 framed VH whose original barrels are the property of PGCA via Sherman Bell.
I sent the 16 gauge to DelGrego to replace the parts and screws as well as to regulate the Miller single trigger. Per the "Book" this gun had a pistol grip stock, but as it did not have the original triggers I had a straight trigger guard bow made. It just returned from Show-Me Gunstocks. Donnie picked up another fine piece of scrap wood from the floor and did a wonderful job.....
