I let one other Parker go that I wish I hadn't, but it came back to me. I was envolved in a three way trade with two other friends. I had to give up the Milo B Richardson BH 12ga 30" (article in PP) for a straight grip BHE 12ga 30" in higher condition. As luck would have it the owner of my BH purchased a BHE 12ga 3 frame at Rock Mountain and offered me back the Milo B Richardson BH. So the circle is complete.

Other than the Model B the only guns I've even sold were ones I bought to sell, so no regrets. Now, guitars and banjos...that's another story...

What a dope.

5" Model 27 3 T's in display case traded for a 20 ga Eibar double to teach my daughter upland shooting. The Eibar was a POS but I wasnt educated enough to know that. The dealer did.

A straight stocked 28” BHE 20ga, in its Brady case from A&F. Belonged to the Bissell family. Just covered my daughters masters degree in Applied Meteorology.
She chucked it all to take people sword and tuna fishing. If I had the gun back, I’d just give it to her knowing she’d never sell it.

VH 16 0 frame, never missed a grouse, but gained a new Parker member...

Regret selling my first 2 barrelled gun, first run of the Ruger Red Label 20 ga, choked sk/sk, with better than average wood. Heavy for a 20 ga, but i shot quite a few grouse with
it back in the late 70's/early 80's. Paid $500 for it. It got traded off to buy my DHE 16 O frame, but wish I had it back.

I’ve kept my first year Ruger Red Label choked IC/M, and it too, has very nice wood. I regret selling a 3200 Skeet with comp wood, 20 ga. 3” Wingmaster, Ruger Deerstalker .44Mag, and a Parker Repro SSS.

A 1935 Runge Delgrego 12 ga. 32" vent rib trap gun, upgraded to A-1 Special.
Also, a two BBL set DHE 20 gauge. This was the "Doctor's Gun" I wrote about in the Parker Pages. (It went to a good home)
Finances can be a beezatch sometimes!

That would have been a tough one to part with. You're not a dope because I'm sure you moved it along for a good reason.:cool: I've been on the lookout for just one like it, even a Gr1 would make me happy.

I did trade my Pigeon grade 3 barrel skeet set with 28'' barrels many years ago for a 30" VHE, OO 28ga Parker. Still have the Parker but miss the Pigeon skeet.
