Rich....I apologize for using the forum for this but I sent you a couple of private messages and I don't believe you got them. I want to send you some vintage 2" Eley cartridges. My email is thomas.j.flanigan@outlook.

Congratulations John. We know the shooter - please tell us about the gun.

My goals changed when I signed up to bid on a great VH .410 in a recent auction. Unfortunately, the checkbook ran out about six items before the .410 came up. The .410 sold for a wonderful $9000. Believe me, this won't be the last .410 to come to auction in the near future.

Ok Dean. So yesterday I actually met my 2019 goal but not my Parker goal. I took my first 50 straight with my Ithaca Flues 5E SBT, straight stock, 34 inch barrel. Both of my Parker SBT's are presently in the "shop".

Today however, I reached my 2019 Parker goal and then some. I returned to the trap field with the 10 pound Voorhees BHE 12 gauge on a 3 frame, 34 inch barrels, ventilated rib, beaver tail forend, straight stock with cheek piece. First round I shot a 21 but ended with 7 straight. Then I settled down and in the next two rounds shot straight for 50. I even picked up another 10 in fourth round before I inevitably missed.

That gave me my 50 straight with a Parker and a long run of 67 over the 4 rounds.

Wear them all out from shooting and hunting and need them all to be redone by end of bird season 2019-2020. What a great year that would be!!!!!!!
