Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

24" PHE 16
Here's the 1926 #1-frame steel-bbld 24" PHE 16 I just got from Trigg. I can't remember how many were made in this configuration but not many. It's been carried a bit but has not been shot much. It locks up very tight and the lever is still to the right. Ejectors are perfectly timed and strong. Bores are mint. Wood very nice and finish good. A good honest Parker that has generations of use yet to come. Perfect dimensions for me and balances very nice. I swore I wasn't going to get into the 16ga game but I've always liked this gun and Trigg still had and gave me back the case of 16ga ammo I gave him years ago.... I will be using some of them up next fall in Minnesota.
Just measured the chokes. Seems choked Cyl/Cyl. Maybe they've been opened. Not enough light yet to get a good look down the bbls. Should be deadly on woodcock and grouse in heavy cover...
