Well I guess I will just have to accept my affliction and organize the search for a suitable 10ga. and a 28 for good measure.

Patrick everyone seems to have forgotten about a certain gauge, the 410 now that's what you need for pointed woodcock... Easy to carry light now that's the one you need after the 10, 16 and 28

Well that sounds good, my wife still thinks that the smaller the gauge the smaller the price. Seriously though I have trouble connecting on grouse with my 20ga. the 410 would require a great deal of practice to become proficient. Hummm another plus for the 410.

Congratulations and there is no cure for the "Parker Fever" thank the Good Lord for that- I'll pass on the 28 gauge and the .410 shotguns, whether Parker, Ithaca or even Winchester- But if you find a PH (E) or GH (E) std. 10 bore on a Number 2 frame- 30 or 32" Parker Steel barrels, DT and good dimensions that you don't want or like (if that's possible NOT to like a Parker) I might be interested. Have been looking at both a Linder Daly 10 and a Ithaca NID- But- there's nothing like a Parker- welcome aboard P!!-

Francis, I will keep my eyes and ears open. Here in Maine we have a large weekly swap and sell publication that generally includes about 6 pages of firearms and frequently, about once a month, a Parker is advertised at a reasonable price so you never know.
