Nice move Richard! My most cherished guns are the ones I've inherited from various family members. None of them are Parkers with most just being rather plain Jane Remington's. Almost everything in my safe could be bought other than those family guns.
I imagine your niece will cherish the Parker more & more as time goes on and some day she will be telling the story to another family member of the day that uncle Richard came down from Alaska to give me this gun. |

I have no family to pass anything to so I have decided to bequeath Gunner's gun to "my adopted" son a Parker, Fox friend who has a young son of his own and even runs a couple of GSP"s

Rich, you could always give it back to its original owner. She would love it.

Thats a good thought Bill but I'm looking into the future and as the recipient is in his early 40's and his son is about 8 now I can see two more generations enjoying this one.

Hey Rich I remember you telling us about that gun and your intentions when we were hunting in Montana. Isn’t that your mom’s gun?

Correct Mike. I've added a pic to the first post. Same gun I had in my hands in one picture that was put in the Parker Pages a while back that shows the first birds I bagged with that gun, my "in a galaxy far far away" picture. I think it looks downright "right" in that compact toe under case.
