In fact, I happen to own the very same hatchet that young George Washington used to chop down his father's cherry tree with... it is as good as new with about the same scenario... :cool:

Then I'm gonna get after the guy that sold me mine, as I was assured it was George's. Oh, wait, it says LL Bean on it.

Bill that was Larry Higgins, yes? He used to hang around with Pete Harvey years ago.

The gun obviously has its flaws, but it looks sleek and its apparent dimensions would seem to make it a real shooter.
Price is crazy high, but at the right price, this would be a terrific Pheasant/Sharptail gun.

What a mess. Nothing seems right on this gun. I have a Trojan that was refurbished to original Parker specs and it looks twice as nice. Personally I wouldn't want the gun at any price. I wonder how it's choked?

Mark, You wouldn't want that gun "at any price".

I love the way he goes to great trouble to hide the last 3 digits of the serial number, but misses them completely on the back of the barrel lug. 196113. Oh well.

Not at any price. The gun is an insult to every original Parker out there.
JMHO

Yeah, I hate that gun! Hmmm. I wonder how it's choked?
:rotf:

Take the gun for what it is: a shooter. I would not be embarassed at all to have that in a duck blind, or shooting clays.

Maybe if it was free and choked right, Mark would take it.

Sorry Mark, just kidding at your expense.
