Parker additions through the first half of 2026???
 

2026 has been more of a sell year than a buy year for me so far. Sold a GH 16/30 Damascus, CH Bernard 12/30, DH 8/36, and a VH 12/30. (all except one on this forum) I did add a GH 8/36. Looking to add a nice Parker hammerless 20 or 16 , C or B, pre 1920ish.
I did make a nice upgrade to my Fox guns. Sold a CE 12/30 . C-HE SuperFox, and DE 12/30. Bought a D Special 12ga/30" live bird gun, serial 23518 see DGJ vol24#3 pg 112. How about you??

Got a new quail gun. It must be a quail gun with 3 bobwhites on the trigger plate.

I bought my first parker a 20ga vhe 28" barrels choked mod and full

Very nice Reggie. Looks like that might "B" a beautiful quail gun :corn: Congrats!

Picked this one up recently.

Parker SC, serial no. 242359. According to a Remington memo dated April 21, 1942, 242359 was still sitting at the Remington Arms Works in Ilion, N.Y., and was the only SBT listed under “WHSE. STOCK APRIL 18TH OF ITEMS ORDERED BUT NOT RELEASED.” I know there is/was at least one SBT with a higher serial number, SC 242367.

When this old girl left Ilion and where she went, we may never know. But she’s down in Georgia now.

I bought back a VHE 12 gauge 32” vent rib trap gun I owned before . Remington era gun .

Here are a couple of pictures of my YTD adds. Top gun is the GH 8ga that I have finished draw polishing and sending it off to Breck Gorman for barrel finish restoration. The barrels had gone brown which drives me nuts. So they will come back black and white. I can't stand ugly damascus barrels.
The bottom gun is my Special D (extractor) Fox 12ga 30" live bird-trap gun with a MC stock and 15" LOP. The engraving on this gun is unique as are more features. It has no grade stamp, no patient stamps, no factory card but it's 100% Fox. Fascinating gun.
