Damascus 10 sage grouse

[Garhart Stephenson]

Hi there folks, I've been a member for a number of months but have yet to participate. I suppose that's because this stuff tends to reduce my productivity but oh well, sometimes it's time well spent. I do look forward to interacting and sharing information with this group of enthusiasts.

At any rate, I bought an EH 10 gauge with damascus barrels as my first Parker. I am an old double type of guy, but had yet to acquire a Parker. When I stumbled onto this gun I was looking for something with a bit of reach to use on prairie grouse species. The gun does do that quite well enough with low pressure 1 5/8oz. ammunition.

The gun is undergoing some changes to suit me as a hunting gun (I'm not an investment collector, just a hunter who appreciates quality and character), but I have taken it on a few sage grouse hunts. I do like the beast rather well indeed. I see a long happy relationship between the EH and myself. I use my old doubles, often. This one will be heading to North Dakota as part of the line up. Enjoy the pics.
