Default 10 Gauge DH

I had a chance to shoot sporting clays with my short 10 today. I first put my hands on this DH with 32” barrels at the Southern SxS this past year. When I noticed it was still for sale at the end of the summer I decided I had to have it. It was originally a pistol grip gun, but I like the straight stock and the gun fits me extremely well and it shoots fantastic. I had trouble with the last picture....

Hi Dean,

Sorry I can't point you in the right direction. I don't know when or who did the stock replacement.

I posted a few more pictures. I liked the way this looked(at least to me) and I always gravitate towards straight/English stocked guns anyway.

Jay;
Nice looking gun. Does it have the long tang of a straight grip?

Nicely done stock in every respect.

I don't have much to compare the tang to other than a very early lifter with a straight stock(#1219). Though based on that comparison, the tang looks shorter. Though it looks like who ever straightened it did a good job.

Thanks for the compliments! I had been looking for a nice grade 2 or 3 10 gauge and this one haunted me at night from when I saw it April until I bought it in August.

Thanks again,
Jay

That is absolutely the correct trigger guard tang for a Parker straight-grip.

An EH in the same configuration would please me also .
