Hey Gary, bring that DH 16 to the Southern, I'll have my little DHE 16 with me, mine has 26" barrels also, choked cyl/mod. Maybe join us at Drakes Thursday.

Around this time, most years, Rich says he is not buying anything at the Southern and is just going to look. If he has already given up now, it should be a good weekend for some dealers

Model 21 Skeet Gun. While at my local FFL picking it up, I looked at a nice honest 28-inch barrel VH-Grade 20-gauge he'd gotten in.

I'm headed to NC for the first time. I'll only be there for one day, but I'm going to check out the exhibitors guns. Hope to see you there...and that we both find a prize or two.

I will be there Saturday only myself. I expect all the good deals to be gone by Saturday!

Don't tell my wife this or she will insist we come Saturday instead of Friday. I wish I could have more time to take everything in, but it just won't work this year. I've owned and hunted with guns for over 55 years, and collected doubles for nearly 30, but I've never fired a gun at clays except an occasional round with a hand trap behind the house. It sure seems like this event and others like it are well respected (and much anticipated) by many members.

Harold, We'll only be in NC for the day on Friday, so I will miss anything on Thursday. I would someday like to catch up with you and reminisce (or commiserate!) about grouse hunting in Ohio "back in the day"-- and look over that 16 DHE.

April must be a good time to buy Parker's. I'm up to 27 letters and the month is only 1/3 gone!

Chuck, that's why we pay you the big bucks!!

I have sold two Parkers and purchased two so I am even. I sold a nice 12ga PH and nice 12ga GH and purchased two 10's, a CH and a DH. In total I have sold 7 sxs's this year to finance the two higher grade Parkers, a NID Grade 3 Super 10 and a Fox XE 16ga.

Sold a 16 gauge Trojan to my brother and bought Winchester 101 20 gauge skeet gun for my son.
