Get your drift??? Ha! I guess we get your drift... we all could write a chapter to the book "What She Doesn't Know Can't Hurt Her" as we try to come up with ever newer evasive techniques in getting another Parker smuggled into the house.

A friend told me many years ago "Never make a fuss over a new gun" This applies especially when your friend comes over. Also, If she catches you with it in hand, throw it on the couch and say "Hi Honey !, What's for lunch?"

I think it was Gene Hill that did the most masterful job of explaining the science of getting a new gun into the house.

Gene's advice works pretty well too.

Believe it or not, I have found that the best way to keep (hide) a new gun is in plain view in my gun cabinet. I hang a small flag (with suction cups) on the glass door and all she can see is the ends of the barrels and the ends of the butt stocks. She never counts them.

I have finally gotten a chance to post some pictures of my "new" Trojan. For those who are interested you can find them in the "Albums" section. The albums name is "Faybon Sotherland's Restored Trojan 16ga."

Just got my first case of shells in today from RST. Really looking forward to "firing this baby up!"
