Picked this one up last nite, dam thing is barely fired. We'll take care of that Sunday AM. 1 set F/F the other LM/F looks she was set up for Boxbirds and Columbaire shooting. I'll have my local guy add another 1/4" to the pad this week. Don't know about the Red bead just yet. Hits the scale at 7# 10ozs. As always I am grateful to own this gun, I will try to make it's makers proud, but I will shoot the tar out of it for as long as can.

Congrats Mark! I hope you look as good shooting it as it looks all by itself. Those 21's are a damn fine gun... too bad it's not a Parker... that would be the frosting!!

Even bald guys look good shooting an H&R Topper. She's in the shop getting a new pad installed. That pad on there was like a rock.
I have a few parker pigeon guns on the burner, some guys just have to come down to reality on there pricing.

Default Topper?

I've had this one for 60 years. My only SBT (single barrel twenty).
