Sounds like a good time for sure. Hats off to Jay for sitting this up. It takes some time and effort but it's worth it IMO. Possibly the 1st of many to come ????

Thanks Randy! I am hoping we all have a good time and can do this shoot every year :)

If I bring shrimp cocktail, will anyone eat it?
My second vaccination at the Brockton VA was unexpectedly cancelled this morning. They ran out of doses. Our govt at work...had to be rescheduled, so I can shoot tomorrow.

Great new Allen! I am glad you can make it and we will have a nice area for lunch after we shoot. I am looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning. Please let me know if you have any questions.

I need to get my Parkers organized and ready for tomorrow. I will be shooting a 16 gauge top action hammer gun, but also have a few to bring for show and tell...

Safe travels everyone and see you in the morning!

Dean Romig 03-26-2021 12:55 PM

I’ll be shooting one of my 16 hammer guns too and a 20 gauge Trojan and I might bring another... something.

I haven’t shot clays for almost two years so I’m probably a bit rusty but I did get new eyeglasses so that might even things out a bit.

I might eat a shrimp or two...

Too bad about your vaccine but that’s Massachusetts for ya.

Dean, the VA didn't even give those of us who had appointments today for the covid shot, didn't have the deceny to call or text us of the cancelation. Yet we all got prior emails confirming our appointments. The other vets and I were pissed off.

The shrimp I'm bringing are extra large, you may only be able to eat one or two. Lol.

I thought I would bring 3 Parkers, my grandfathers/dad's 16 that Lawrence rebuilt for me some number of years ago and 2 20 ga Repros that fell in my lap recently and that I've come to enjoy shooting.

Allen you mentioned in another thread that the drop at comb on the repro was a problem and i said i had solved it by using a boot style slip on recoil pad there-by lengthening pull and bringing my cheek back. I will bring it tomorrow and you can see if it is what you need.

allen newell 03-26-2021 02:34 PM

Thanks Dan, I'll try it. I did discover that if I put my cheek down hard on the stock that my shooting improved dramatically

Jay Oliver 03-26-2021 03:03 PM

I'll bring serial #97 so everyone can see a nice early Parker.

I have a few others as well, to show and hopefully get some opinions/advice on. Looking forward to a great time!
