Need Advice...

[RedRiverII]

In short, I'd like to get a Parker. I'd like to use a sxs 'just because'. I'm recently retired, well three years retired. Compared to my work life of fifty some odd years, three years still seems recent.

I want a Parker for several good reasons. American made being foremost, and being manufactured during the foremost years of our Great Experiment. Parkers may have very well been used by our Greatest Generation, the WWII guys. My Dad rolled off names of places he visited during the War that now rebound like a history book when I recall them. So another reason for a Parker is a piece of history, a tactile reminder of who we really are.

I've been in search of shotguns for a short time relatively so when I visited PGCA for information I found an informative and inviting atmosphere. A reward in itself. I sent in a membership because there really is no free lunch. For all the joy in doing we still need capitol, so I join sites to vote for and reward excellence. Much to my surprise I received a wonderful welcome package. Thank you.

Which Parker would you suggest if I wanted to shoot clay games? I do not enjoy skeet as much as sporting or 5 stand. At this point I'd like to shoot. I've viewed some terrific Parkers that I'd like to own in the future as a collector, but just not yet. Then again the hammer guns are particularly attractive and The Siren song has begun.

I'm aware of the lack of information I've offered, so if you would steer me in the correct direction I'd be obliged.
