January or February I picked up my long sought 32" 20g. It's a VH with excellent dimensions for me. Choked F/F it turns clays into diesel smoke. Sold two other guns to buy this one but it was well worth it.

No SxS's but did add another Browning.

An SC 32” or 34” is nice no doubt . But my best trap singles work was done with a K-32 that had a K-80 34” unsingle barrel on it .

And I had to settle for that 30" VH 20 ga. last year. Mine shoots good. I guess from what ya said yours does also. Good shooting with that gun Mike.

John, You are right!The gun seems to be a part of me, just need a lot of practice, and Bill Sharps were Buffalo guns mainly, I have one that weighs 14 pounds shoot from sticks or a bench with it, Gary

I had a DHE 20 30”straight grip that I shot really well but I thought I needed a 32” so I got a VH 20 32”. I shot both pretty well but did slightly better with the 30” gun . Now I have neither so it’s a moot point .

Hi Gary,

I didn't know what the "business rifle" was. I never heard that term used for a Sharp's.

I'm sure your 14 pounder shoots very well. Any buffalo hanging around your neck of the woods?

Thanks Gary.

Bill

A new old Parker
 
I was recently given a Parker, serial #81692. The person who gave it to me thought it had no value and said it was just a wall hanger. I did some research and found it was a grade 7 AAHE model made in 1895. I believe it's all there and could be brought back to original condition. I have a question, do I sell it as is or get it restored?

Thanks
