It’s one thing to want it, it’s quite another to get out the checkbook.

I had a very good 2017 as far as adding to my Parker collection is concerned. I am going to "try" and focus on one or two special guns for 2018. These could include:

A 16 gauge, maybe a PH and/or grade 0 or 1 hammer gun
An 8 gauge hammer gun, lifter or top action
A grade 3 lifter in 12 or 10
And of course there is always that random Parker that I don't know I am looking for until I see it

Looking forward to seeing how I make out

Well ,it would be fun to find that Proverbial Needle in a Hay Stack but this is it , in 2017 I found a set of 12 Gauge ,Twist Steel Barrels with the Trojan Rib Extension , very good condition ,the thing is they are off of a Trojan Grade ,1 Frame gun ! I know this sounds impossible, but I would really like to add the rest of the gun to my collection in 2018 , Serial# 173981 ! If you happen to have it ,give me a call !

other than that -- a 16 gauge hammer gun, that hole may be filled -i'll know soon
So is this ghost 10 a hammerless ?

I have been looking for years for the right DH or DHE-16 Gun must have its SSBP and modern dimensions of 14 1/4 1 3/8 2 1/2 I shoot 1 1/4 by 2 1/4 best but that would be a tall order! About 6lbs-4oz but well under 7lbs. I do not want a 12 weight gun with 16 holes! 28" barrels with some choke or 30" Mod/x-full for out west. Thanks all...SXS Ohio

Kenny, you have that Repro with the 16 ga. barrels that should fill that bill.

I did some trading last year for a Lefever 16ga Optimus, a Purdey light game gun and an AE Fox 20 with 30 inch tubes.

2018 will bring a wonderful CHE 16 with 80% case color and 30 inch barrels on a #1 frame. I'm not really looking for anything and there is nothing I really want or need
