Have you seen a 20-ga. BHE Repro with game scene engraving like this one?

I've only seen a few BHE Repros but nothing like that. Looks like it came from the A1S shop.

It is mine.It is serial number 84.The engraving is finer than any I have seen before.It came from the factory as a standard BHE,no special ordering.I guess all of the BHE guns were hand engraved and they used different engravers.I can't find a signature anywhere on the gun.

Greg,
Saw one on GI in last few days. If it had DTs I would own it. Yours??

John...I like the engraving, better than the standard we see...Like Bob, I also collect repro's with two triggers...)-: The BHE is the only big one still on my list...20 or 28ga. with double triggers. Then I can push away from the table and be repro satisfied. SXS ohio

I also prefer the style of engraving of John's gun than those usually encountered. I wonder why we haven't seen more variations of the game scenes in this model?

Remember Kenny, no Parker Reproduction Collection can be considered complete without a 0000-frame example in there somewhere. You could 'push away from the table' with just one purchase -- find yourself a 4/0 frame BHE .410 with double triggers. :)

Interesting that 2 more BHEs have just shown up on GI. Typically, CSMC is asking $3000 more than Steve Barnett for basically the same gun. I like the engraving better on the one John Allen is selling.

Kenny, I doubt you'll ever be done with your Parker Reproduction acquisition quest ;)!

John I like the engraving on your gun better than any I've seen. Maybe it is just that I love Grouse and Woodcock, but your gun is special.
