Yes, inquiring minds want to know. And we also want pictures:corn:

If its the grade 2 #5 frame 10 ga with 36" barrels Mr.Phil has I have seen it last year when he was telling me about it . Its a beauty for sure , then again I think most 10 ga Parkers are :rotf:

I acquired it 4 years ago. Just don’t shoot my 10’s or 8 gauges anymore
Doing some house cleaning of my big gauge guns. It was a G grade.
Sold earlier today. Possibly the owner, one of our Parker members will post some pictures once he receives it.
Now both my GHE and my G hammer gun both with 36” barrels are gone.

The 5 would have intrested me to say the least !

It's really great to hear that big bores are still popular among buyers. That is, unless Phil has flooded the market. Some big bores have disappeared from this site recently, hopefully to happy buyers.

Hopefully my GHE and G both with 36” barrels only made a small dent.
3 or 4 more and I am out of Big Bore shotguns. Then start working on Rehoming my Big Bore Rifles.
For dome reason I have become a little recoil Sensitive. Not sure why but possibly the same reason a 5 gallon bucket weighs 2 to 3 times heavier than they used to weigh 15 years ago.

I have the same affliction phil...hopefully better days ahead...charlie

Shotguns haven’t bothered me to much lately . But the rifle thing at the bench I gotta say again the 222 , PPC and 260’s with heavy barrels are a great deal more fun to shoot now . I still like working up loads for the hunting rifles . But for just shooting groups to be shooting groups I’ve got six HB rifles that are very light recoil if at all . Which kinda has me halfway looking for a Remington 40X or a Shilen DGA in 222 and or 6x47 REM . I’ve got several boxes of new Federal 6x47 match brass in case I find a 6x47 . Far nicer then having to make it from 222 Rem Mag .

Some friendly advice Phil - stay with the small bores for quial, woodcock and grouse.
