I just logged in only to find that I am now a member of the PGCA (thanks Daryl C. For the great Christmas Present). I am really looking forward to digging deep in the archives and learning more about one of my most favored doubles. Here today, I woke up and my 13 year old son asked if we could go deer hunting so at noon I picked him up from school and off we went... You can see that I even use a double in the tree however, unfortunately, I don't have a Parker that can shoot ball...was their ever such a piece?

Anyway I look forward to participating in the forum and hopefully meeting some PGCA members.

Happy Holidays

Welcome ,
What are you shooting for ammo ?

Nice Westley, KC. Is it a drop lock? I had a Faunetta in 20.

Your welcome Kevin. I know you are just as addicted to these fine doubles as everyone on this site. I also know you are too cheap to spring for a membership.

So... I figured I'd get you hooked on this, the finest organization that I have ever been associated with. The biggest bonus is the great bunch of guys I am proud to call my friends. Many thanks to Mary and John to get this all set up in time for Christmas. Enjoy, talk to you soon.
By the way.....where's the deer?

KCordell · 12-23-2012, 07:05 AM

Didn't get a deer...saw a few but nothing that warranted a shot..

The best part of the weekend included my 13 year old son shooting his first goose the following morning....wow, what a feeling.

I am currently having a double build that will shoot 20g sabot slugs. I wanted to use a Parker Trojan as the starting point, but the builder did not like the single bolting. I disagreed, but you can't argue with with the gunsmith building it that has McGuire more knowledge and experience.
