Not in the league with Rich, but a 1906 VH 16 gauge on a 0 frame with 28" barrels. Just got it yesterday. 6.1 Lbs.

I didn't buy it but I was sure tempted. I was at L.L. Bean in Freeport Maine today and handled a very nice 16 ga. VH on a 1 frame with 30" barrels. It has sling swivels and I don't know if they were installed in Meriden or later. Asking price is $1,499 and I thought that price is more than reasonable for such a nice Parker. It has nice modern dimensions too. Still kickin' myself.

Here is my latest that followed me home from the Southern. This is before PGCA's records start, but it looks like an early Grade 2 to me. It is a 12 gauge lifter with Damascus barrels.

Mills,

That pic with the little fella is great. I can't help but think he's saying to himself "Yeah, dad thinks this is his..."

Cheers,
Marcus
