I was on a similar path with Parker made Laminated path as Dean, but then ended up sending those guns along to other collectors for one reason or another. They are very nice though and I will have another at some point.

Then I got into 20 gauges and am still having fun in that space. A lot of my go to Parkers are 20s.

I would have to say my recent passion that I keep getting more excited about are back action lifters. There is something I just love about these early Parkers. While I don't shoot use them all the time, I do get them out for clays or hunting regularly. With both nitro and black powder loads. There is just something wonderful about loading up some brass shotshells with black powder at the kitchen table the night before a hunt and shooting a few birds with a Parker made in 1869.
