Craig is a fortunate man. I had a place picked out for it in the safe.

I have a 36" 10 ga d grade and it is a goose and duck terminator. A lot of fun to shoot. I use pyrodex in full length brass shells. It's a great gun and a real crowd pleaser.

Alan: That means we know where two of the three made are. What is the weight and frame size of your gun. Can you post pictures?? Thanks Craig

Craig,
For some reason I can't get the pics to copy/ paste. Anyway the hammerless D grade I bought from Cabelas about 10 years ago and sent it to Turnbull for restoration. It is a #6 frame 10, 36" barrels and weighs 14 lbs. it was built in 1901 and sent to a guy in South Dakota. His name is still on the oval plate. The other one is a D grade hammer 10, #6 frame,34" barrels I bought about 8 years ago. It went to Turnbull also and was such a wreck it was almost unrestorable. It weighs 13.5 lbs and was built in 1901 also. Both are in as new condition now and I feel good that they are back doing what they were built for: long range duck and goose shooting. I have a couple hundred full length brass cases I load with pyrodex and about 1 1/4 oz of shot( bismuth for hunting). I also shoot them at ZZ trap now and then. They are also a lot of fun for driven pheasants. Regards, Alan |

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I posted a 20 ga. years ago with no problem. Someone give me a refresher. |

Around 1994 I was in a small Chicago area gun store and they had two hammer guns hanging on the wall. Both were 'rough'. One was a small frame Parker and the other was a very large Parker. I'm sure it was a 6 frame in hindsight. Because these were 'display' items I didn't ask more about them but I wish now I had.
