A few 28’s, and 1 20 gauge I believe.

From left we have 2 Parker’s by Mr Corona, a 20 I believe and the famous 30” VH 28. The gun on the right is 1 of 5 produced Grade 3E NID 28 gauges, 26”.

Thanks Stan. The two on the left are both VHE 28's. A 26" and the 30". That was a fun shoot.

That 30-inch VH 28-gauge Cabela's Rodgers, AR, put up on GI today sure didn't last long!

Just some hard working 28s, nothing special.
A Grade 1 Ugartechea with 27 " IC/MOD and a Dickinson Estate with 30 in barrels and choke tubes. I carry the Ugartechea more than the Dickinson.

A gun that takes birds constantly is special.

And if you noticed, it certainly looked like someone had blued the frame.

Well the good news is, if it is blued, that's a relatively in expensive fix based on what you paid for it. Otherwise, it looks like a pretty good gun. I already have two 30" 28 gauges, so that's the only reason I passed on it.

I tried to find the original listing but apparently it was taken down as soon as it sold. What were the specs? Asking price? SN? All items of interest for us 28 ga. fanatics!
