Yes! AND if any PGCA funds have had to be used for bail money.:whistle:

DH 12 ga. 3 frame with 34" Damascus barrels and 2 7/8" chambers. Original condition matching the letter. PG,DT,SFE,SSBP. Adopted by a Hoosier family.

J Loew had several Parker's. 3 A Grade hammer 10's within 4 numbers of each other. To many more on his table to remember.

Saw a DHE 410, nice solid gun priced at 70K.

Upgraded 8 gauge for the Craig's.:)

I did not see that one.

Randy, what auction house had the upgraded 8ga?

The Vegas show is always overwhelming, thanks for your comments Randy.

Cowan's, Cincinnati.

Josh had a sexy 8 bore Lefever owned by Grover Cleveland. He also took ownership of the .410 DHE and it was on his table Saturday around mid-day. I know a guy who bought the 20g $65 Grade lifter. Nice gun that will be restocked to usable dimensions and the original stock will be kept as is so no "collectors" need to throw a brain-vein!! As is it's 13 1/2" LOP and a 4 1/2" DAH. That is for a giraffe with T-Rex arms!! It is 1 of 14 O grade lifters in 20g made by Parker. Really neat gun that'll show up on the podium hopefully sometime in 2022. Just sayin'.

Actually, there were a good many Parkers throughout the two event halls. Most were 10 or 12g but there were some others mixed in. An 8 or two, a .410. Didn't see any 28g but that doesn't mean there weren't any. There was a Try-Gun there I have my eye on. There was a two gun four barrel set in case. Two guns, one had 12 and 20g bbls, the second had .410 and 28g bbls. One full set in case and it was a Repro of course. If I'm not mistaken that price tag was about $200K. Randy would know the price. There were other Parker items like a few repro catalogs. Keith Kearcher had a sexy straight grip C grade stock, inletted, checkered/drop points and finished AND with shield and butt treatment and it's own trigger guard that someone snapped up from his booth. :) Same guy was also seen buying a Parker action, fore-end, trigger guard and stock (broken but had shield, butt plate and trigger guard). He had a good show!! Just sayin' for a friend. :rotf::bowdown:
