We won a ragged old lifter from the silent auction, but nothing else.

I sold a handful of "Old odd Rifles " I hadn't shot in years through a local gun shop ,nothing I would want to advertise on our site or put the time in shipping them ,so none of our members missed out on anything special ! As for purchases , I picked up a really nice little GHE 20 with 28" Barrels on our site and a few weeks ago I bought the CHE 20 Gauge with 30" Dam 4 Barrels ,that was advertised on our site also ! I have no Pictures of the CHE to post , I sent the wood up to Brian D.,to have the checkering cleaned up and the Barrels down to Breck G.,to have the Dam 4 barrels Refinished ,one note on the 30" Barrels ,the gun has 2 7/8" Chambers and fortunately the Chambers are mentioned in the letter ! !Once I get it all back ,I will post pics. ! I was quite pleased with the CHE Engraving , it is Exceptional ,I think it has the crispest engraving of any Parker gun I have ever owned !

Through the kindness of the member who bought my little Grade-0, 0-frame 16-gauge Lifter with 24” (cut) barrels, with a true ball grip, not a round knob grip, I bought back this special woodcock and grouse gun a few months ago. Keavin Nelson re-checked the grip and forend and gave it back to me at Hausmann’s last week, very nicely done. Next step is is to send the Twist barrels to be redone.

I’m a happy guy!

That reminds me….

Three Dolls Head Trojans. 1 each in 12, 16 & 20 gauge. All 2 1/2” chambered, 28” barrels and choked mod/full (the 16 ga. is closer to mod/improved mod). Very familiar dimensions as I’ve carried my 1930 12 gauge Trojan almost exclusively for 30 odd years. I shoot them well. The 20 and 12 are in frequent rotation to the three gun clubs I frequent weekly. The 16 will see more use as soon as my Armusa boat lands stateside with my ammo.

The only Parker I procured this year is a sweet 12g VH straight grip, double trigger, very good dimensions, Men’s Department chokes and did I mention 34” barrels.

I bought my first (actually first 2) Parkers back in Feb of this year. A 12ga VHE 30" barrels, factory vent rib, straight stock and factory single selective trigger. Also at the same time a 20ga VH with 26" barrels.

That sent me down the classic SxS rabbit hole and since then I've purchased a 32" Remington 1900, a 32" Parker VH project gun (needs a butt stock), a 30" Fox Sterlingworth 16ga, a 32" 12 GA Sterlingworth that was refurbished and restocked with a modern dimension English stock and BT forend, and a 32" Sterlingworth with factory stocks.

Sold quite a few guns during ‘26 both personally and at auction, and bought a GHE/16g/28” with fine Damascus tubes, also a VH/16g/30” and a Fox K Grade SBT/32” that’s pretty unusual and I’ll be doing an article on her for the Fox Newsletter. On the Fox, those of you who were at Hausmann’s might remember the older gentleman about 1/2 way down the center aisle with a bunch of mostly Parkers on display, not really for sale. I got to talking with him about clay target shooting and when I told him I had a K Grade Fox he was all over me on/off for 2 days asking for my sell price. Actually I shot her yesterday, super sporting on call, and was high gun in the squad when I left after 54 shots. Although a right shoulder shooter I’m still limited in lifting with my left arm and 9 stations @ 6 birds each were plenty for now. Man, how I love tight chokes for sporting clays. Hit or miss, and if a miss I’d better figure out why.
