Repro. Question

[C.O.B.]

Richard NSFL stands for National Sporting Fraternity Limited. Its a group of 1000 members started by Jim Rikkoff from Winchester Press. They did a lot of very nice limited edition books much like the old Derrydale Press. They also did hunts and other projects for the limited membership and a run of 1000 Parker Repos was one of these projects.

Unfortunatly they are no longer around. My first plantation style Quail hunt was with this group.

Thank you for the information. Isn't it wonderful that we have such people who make the effort to further the shooting sport and admire old Parker guns!
Some of the happiest moments in my life have been on the other side of a covey rise, or watching a cock bird pheasant as it struggles to gain altitude clucking like mad, or a Mallard as he sticks out his great orange feet to slow for a water landing.

Shooting an old Parker gun just adds to the experience. Nothing much better.

As much as we all have our own preferences, I personally Prefer a Reproduction because of a few optional available features: namely screw in chokes, 3 inch chambers, a barrel strength that will allow steel shot.
Yes, all good guns are "spendy" but I have yet to buy a gun I could afford and I refuse to own a gun I cannot shoot.
IMHO,
