Wild Skies I hope you get enjoyment from my article about Richard Flanders. I know I really enjoyed meeting him and hunting in that magical place.

Really liked the article by Brian Dudley. Really enjoy learning a bit about the actual people that made the Parker Gun.

I have to give a shout-out to Brian D. Though I haven't had any gunsmith work done for quite a few years by anyone, I pay attention. I have been hanging out on the various shotgun websites for quite a few years, and actually watched him come up in the world, to become the truly accomplished gunsmith and Parker guy that he is today.

Mine came in yesterday. Instead of reading an article a day and making it last, I read the whole thing!! It, as usual, is really good.
Also seeing me as a Forum Associate reminds me I have to send Mary Bowes my check tomorrow for 2017 dues.

Thank you Robert for the nice words. I really try to assemble well thought and written pieces that i only hope are of some interest to the readers of PP. And i hope that this article did that for some. For me, it was a lot of time and work to put it together.

It was a really good article Brian. I'm sure glad that you didn't write it on your iPhone..... :corn:

I would like to recognize John Frierson for his very nice article on Dr. Havilah Babcock's Parkers. I always wished that Dr. Babcock had been my English professor while attending the University but he was a bit before my time. John's article made me pull out my copy of "Tales of Quails n Such" and start re-reading. Dr. Babcock never let work get in the way of his bird hunting. He tells how he got into hot water once because his enterprising secretary posted a notice on his classroom door which stated that "Dr. Babcock will be sick all next week."

Nice work, John

A good secretary, and a good First Sargent can make your job a lot easier

After reading that article on Dr. Babcock and seeing the Parkers I was hoping to see a damascus barreled gun from the story "Fallen Lady". I think that was the story name.
