The Repros that you've previously shown us Gary have killer wood -- and this latest 20 of yours is no exception . . . you've got taste!

One is a Parker Reproduction DHE and the other is a Parker CH (1893). The wood on the Reproduction is indeed comparabley exceptional. This has been a great topic. I have enjoyed the many posts. Some extraordinary wood out there.

Dean, I asked Jack Skeuse (sorry probably spelled it wrong) and he told me they had records of every type of wood that was stocked on every repro and that the wood was graded for every stock. I had a Parker 20 Gauge Repro that was a grade 4 per Jack. I believe he told me the highest was a grade 5. Don't have the gun any longer but the wood was spectacular Claro. Far as I can recall he said most of the wood came from Calico Hardwoods in Ca.
