Dad if you buy another new /old gun Mom is going take you to the woodshed. You won't get away with just a new mix Master....on the other hand those 32 in tubes would be great out on the prarie, you know to keep the gun moveing. the follow through will result in more birds in the bag then on the table as dinner so you might pass it off as a grocery getter.

I shot my first gun with 32 in tubes today at sporting clays. An Ithaca 4E vent rib trap gun. She can smoke a target when I do my part which wasn't very often but hey we just started dateing

Been in that woodshed before I'm struggling now. 32" a bit rare. play budget can do it. Already in Canada, so the extra 400 tagged on to bring one from the south isn't a factor. What to do, what to do.......
Cheers,
Jack

One can always sell but one cannot always buy...

Jack, I think you are answering your own question here.... I believe you found a keeper. Post pics when you get the gun

Yup Jack....Sounds like you already bought the "Ol Girl" It's just a matter of giving the guy the dough. See I knew it was gonna live at your house....

Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission. Buy it now deal with the woodshed later. Mom will forgive you, I just know it.

Default Sterlingworth

This is coming from a true Parkerphile but I could kick myself for ignoring Mr. Fox's guns until now. Just bought my 4th Fox and 1st graded gun at the Southern this year. A really nice, totally original 12ga. BE w/30" tubes.
Took her out this weekend down to Pintail Point and just shot it like I had owned it for years. I would buy that Sterly in a heartbeat with 32's. I own 2 Sterlys now[a 16 and a 12] and they are every bit the gun that a Parker is. Please forgive me for saying that. I will deny it under oath and please don't yank my life membership. Now that I'm out of the closet I feel better. I'm going up to the safe and fondle my DHE now just to let her know that I still find her very attractive with that sexy straight grip.

Do the Fox guys know this? Do they also secretly harbour Parkers?
