Default First Time Out with VH 16
Finally was able to hit the woods with my 1913 VH 16ga. over the weekend. This gun is my first Parker and was very excited to hunt with it. After missing 2 grouse I connected on a couple woodcock. Here is the first woodcock I harvested with the Ol ' Parker.

That woodcock looks very comfortable there alongside that pretty Parker.

Very nice!

Just curious about frame size barrel length weight and chokes. I am very partial to the 16 and almost always go to one to carry in the field. Thanks
