Gary, are you interested in an original Parker or a Parker Repro?

I'm looking for a repro. Maybe somewhere down the line I may change my mind and relax my criteria but for now I will hold out for my ideal.

Charlie, just such a gun as your dream gun won the PGCA Best Parker in Show at the Gold Medal Concours a few years ago. At some time after that, I believe Jack Puglisi offered it for sale at a mystery price. It was in unfired condition, a DH Grade as I recall.

Charlie, like many other great Parkers, including two of the Invincibles, that unfired 40" DH spent a good part of its life just a few miles from my house in the hands of people I slightly knew or knew quite well. Keep your eyes open. That gun may come on the market again soon, who knows.

Charlie, Daryl Middlebrook displayed a 8ga GH with 40-1/2 " barrels at the Southern last year, and I might add quite a gun. I think it was bought at auction, so like Bill says they are few and far between but out there!
