Nope. They are reproductions. They are still nice guns

Just a "babe in the woods" here as far as owning Parkers go...but I do own an original Trojan 20 ga, which a gunsmith has recently, pronounced "shootworthy" and just today, I took delivery on a beautiful, and pristine, DHE Reproduction in 20 ga. with beavertail forend and double triggers.
Since this is just the beginning of my "collector's fever" I am proud to own both, as they each, in their own right are wonderful pieces of work, as well as giving me a long and short glimpse into the history of these fine firearms. I have a case of RST 2 1/2" 20's due to be delivered tomorrow and a smattering of 2 3/4" modern 20's waiting for the next bright day, when I will assuredly, be at my range letting some lead shot fly, in a glorious, comparison of both... Perhaps tomorrow! ![]() |

I think it means REPRO as in reproduction but REPO is used so much I am not 100 % sure. I think I know what he means though. I sure hope someone doesn't repo somebody's repro.

Is a repo the same thing as a repop?

For all you southerners, a repo is a word used to describe a parker Reproduction. I guess you have to be from Ne. And no thats not New England. Dave

Part of the reason for starting this thread is that I may have a chance to "repo" my Great Uncle's Parker reproduction, although not for free, and wanted to see what everyone thought.

I have yet to shoot a BT 28 guage. Someday I hope to. Bill says they are very nice. I hope to find out. Seems there are 20's for sale alot. I guess it is an affordable way into a small bore Parker. I do like the hand work on an original and the unknown variety in the wood and engraving. 100-125 year old walnut is hard to reproduce. Stamped guns are just stamped guns. The big plus with a reproduction is the barrels. Dave
