Default What did you add to your Parker collection in 2018?

Some great Parkers hit the market this year. What did you add in 2018? I sold a couple to upgrade but I added a CH bernard 10ga from a PGCA member, a DH 10ga with a fishtail lever and a DH 20ga/26". Really have nothing on my wish list except maybe another #3frame 12 ga.

Added a GHE 20 then traded it in on a DHE 20 With 30 inch barrels that fits me better. If i were not widowed I would spend so dam much money on Parkers !

Picked up a grade 2 hammer 12 gauge. A lovely long legged PH 16 gauge with 32” tubes, and a beautiful GH 16 gauge zero frame with 28” D4 barrels and fantastic wood!

A set of 26" Titanic barrels for my 24" DHE20. Whether I get it back in 2018 is another story.

Circa 1891 EH10 gauge #2 frame with factory original 28" barrels , a circa 1881 Grade 0 10 gauge lifter #2 frame 30" and a circa 1903 VH 16 gauge #1 frame 28" .

As to a wish list !

1. VH or VHE 28 gauge

2. EH 10 gauge with factory original 26" and or 24" barrels (I actually want one of each length but doubt it ever happens).

3. GH 16 gauge 0 frame 26" or 28" Damascus or fluid steel

Steve and I bumped into each other in KTP today and he told me about this beautiful Parker.... and now here it is! Fabulous! Good talking with you today Steve -


As far as adding anything to my Parker collection this year.... (and notice he didn't ask to know which "Parkers" we added, only what we had added to our "Parker collections")

And so... I added a fabulous Sterlingworth 20/28" with ejectors to my inconsolable Parker collection this year.

Added a Bernard CH that is having the barrels redone and a CHE that is having the stock fixed. In addition I pocked up a family trojan and a 16 ga VH. Non parker wise I got me a British 12 ga and a strong flare up of colt fever.
