2023 Parker Sells/trade Buys??

[Craig Larter]

In 20 and 16ga Foxes rule compared to Parker 20/16's. The frame of a Fox is much more petite and Foxes generally weight less than Parkers. The Parker frame is to long and looks out of balance on 20/16's. I expect lots of hate mail LOL!!

Spoken like a true big bore shooter!

On a side note I once had a Parker BHE 20 30" straight stock and a Fox DE 20 30" straight stock side by side on my rack. The Parker BHE 20 is still there.

Oh but you should see that BHE 20, it's a screamer Craig.

It’s like a choice between beautiful Blondes or Brunettes for me. I love them all and want to take every one I see home. It sure is easier to own one of the Parker’s though. And then there is the 28 gauge…

That’s why Parkers are much better for clays. The lightweight Fox is not conducive to hundreds of rounds per day. For me, a few pounds more in a gun is nothing when carrying it in the field. I’m Polish, German and Scandinavian so we’re just tough! 😎😁🤪

You're preaching to the choir here Craig. You know how I love the Fox 20 and I manage to shoot it fairly well. To me, they are a much more livelier handling gun. That's not to knock the Parker 20's I own. I own a few and enjoy shooting them but 9 out of 10 times I will pick a Fox over the Parker. I also have a Lefever 20 which is in the same league as the Fox. But with out a doubt my Parker 28's are in a league by themselves. As a sidebar, the Parker 28 on a OO frame is the same size as a Fox smallbore frame. Too bad Fox never saw fit to make a 28.

As far as 2023 acquisitions I did acquire a nice 12ga A grade with 30in tubes and a 20ga Parker Trojan with 26in tubes and the doll's head extension bequeathed to me by a lifelong friend.

I’d have been totally okay with AH Fox if they’d seen fit to make 8’s 10’s 28’s and 410’s
