That looks Parker handsome to me. Well done!

Maybe it's the perspective, but the first, and especially the third picture appear that the gun has a very short butt height, i.e. distance from heel to toe.

Dean---the barrels are 26 "---M/F----21/2 " chambers

Edger---The stock is a standard small frame , 14" pull ,1 7/8 " to 2 3/4".
I have owned 20's with larger end butts, like a 1 frame gun and have owned 20's with smaller butt end ,like an 0 frame gun----I prefer the smaller of the 2. All the 28 bore gun that I have owned had the smaller butts.

I have a 24"PHE 28 bore that had M/F chokes , could not hit a thing with it set up that way. Herb Stratemeyer open the chokes to have just a few thousands , it is now DEADLY on grouse and woodcock.

Allan, what is the frame size of this gun?
I love the color he got out of the wood.

That's the one I was thinking of Allan - what a sweetheart of a gun that one is.

0 frame---I am looking for a set of 20 bore VHE barrels. I am sure they are around. That will make the gun !!!
