My first Parker trap gun was purchased in 1973. I have been shooting it for forty years. I don't think we can wear these things out. By the way, who was the first purchaser of your gun? He may be a famous shooter.

It was ordered by Honeyman Hardware Co of Portland OR on March 9 and shipped on June 6th 1918
I wish I knew the history or how it got to be listed as straight grip and it is the pistol grip
Another interesting fact in the letter is the LOP was 15"
And the cost was 150.00 (a lot of money in 1918)
