Matt, what a gun this will be! Better plant a few more warm season grass buffers on your farm to hold more pheasants. You will likely never miss with this gun.

I'm with Reggie... BHE 32" 28ga, straight grip, sfe, ssbp, dt, 14 5/8" lop, 1 /12 x 2 1/2, .018/.024, weight to be 6-6.25 lbs., non-automatic safety, skeletal top lever and trigger guard, roundel on bottom with vignette of my Lab with a quail in his mouth and doves, pheasants and quail engraved on sides. "Made for D. C. Corona on top rib, let's see anything I've forgotten? Oh yes, a gold compass inletted into the left side of stock of a killer piece of wood. Nah, just kidding about the compass but it has to have killer wood.

AAHE 28 gauge 32" Bernard barrels if available, Damascus if Bernards are not available. There should be a set of Bernards in the junk pile since no one ever ordered them. Bore them as tight as possible. Flat tapered rib, no extension rib and no safety on this pigeon gun. Straight grip for raciness, unplated, checkered double triggers for versatility, #1 size stock and skeleton butt on a sharp curve to stick to my shoulder, one big gold bead to save the elephants, engraving bold and deep, no birds or dogs, all scroll, to shield the engravers from criticism in the future. Gold plated screws and hardware on the long splinter forend as we recently saw on the forum.

Wow, an A grade hammer 16! I'm backsliding on my choice again.

Thanks for responding.

Whew, you had me worried there when you wanted to put a compass in that "killer wood" butt stock! I like the skeletal top lever and trigger guard touch. I don't recall, did Parker ever do that on a BHE grade? Don't worry, though, whatever the case, your order will include that (very nice) specification. ;-)

If only dreams could come true! I would want a 20ga 0-frame AHE with 30" steel barrels weighing as close to 6lbs as possible. This will be a straight stock/ splinter DT gun with a LOP of 15 1/8" and DAH of 2 3/8". This gun will have special deep engraving similar to the flower motif. The bottom of the receiver will have 4 special setters engraved. This is an upland bird gun.

Bill, I checked, and there are 32" 28 gauge barrels available! I wonder just how tight the Bros. Parker could bore a 28 gauge.

I, and the elephants (not to mention the engravers), thank you for your order!

Ken, An upland gun for sure! I'll get you rush delivery IF you let me shoot it.
