Yup, Edgar, Ridgefield, CT. If my ex hadn't been with me, I would have scored a real clean 28 gauge DH Parker for $2650. I'm sure Gary would have knocked a few bucks off of that price. Oh, well.

That's probably the gun Allan Swanson bought, then pi$$ed and moaned when Gary came up with the 2nd set of barrels and wanted more money.
$2650 was the magic number back then. My dad bought an as-new DHE20 for $2650 from him. It now resides with his first grandson, not 5 miles from Kevin.

I definitely remember Alan’s moaning about it…his pi$$ing, not so much.
