The gun will be sold this Sunday. I would not say I'm not interested - depends on the condition. I'll let you know what it sells for.

Posting the name and where-abouts of an auction where you are not the consignee is against the unwritten rules. Please Moderators, confirm Thanks

Since when is posting the NAME of an auction house against the "UNWRITTEN RULES"?
Seriously Jim? Moderators please do clarify the unwritten rules for us.

An auction of a specific gun such as this may be posted in the Member's Off Topic section. This will give any interested PGCA member an advantage over non-members.

Announcing that an auction will have many Parkers may be listed in the public forums.

The difference is that a thread on a specific gun creates interest.

Thank you Mark for the clarification. I generally browse the forums using the "New Posts" method and don't pay much attention to which forum the post is in.
I guess I somehow feel we all, PGCA members and forum members alike, all share in the interests of Parker Bros shotguns and spreading the knowledge about them and generally do not think of my PGCA membership as a way to get an advantage over non members.

David,

PGCA membership has its advantages. All are welcome to use the forums but only PGCA members may buy and sell using these forums. Substantial information about a Parker for sale is a direct sale aid and may only be listed in the members For Sale or Off Topic forums.

David, I think you will find a lot of disagreement with your opinion of the correctness of the membership advantage. I pay for this advantage with my membership dues, and the advantage is the same as reading the "For Sale" ads in the Parker Pages, which only members receive.

"Advantage" may not be the word to use but I think better is the word "privilege" to describe the benefit of being able to buy or sell guns on the PGCA Forum where others ("forum associates" and "visitors") can't access these Members Only pages.

OK, Sunday has come and gone. What did the gun sell for and what auction house sold it? Thanks.

I think it's this coming Sunday.

On the same note, there's an auction in Gettysburg PA this week via Auction Zip. Some very nice doubles including 20ga DHE and VHE, SBT, and others. Lots of eye candy. Anybody got a few grand they'll loan me?
