John, how sweet it is!!!!

I only added one but it was a good one! GH 6 frame 8ga w/36 inch full/full barrels. All original and quite nice condition. Retains some good case colors and the barrels have nice damascus finish left. 1911 production.
Thanks to a good friend and moderator on the forums!

I held that gun last June (well, Eric Eis helped me hold it) and it really is something to behold. Congratulations David.

That is one nice 8 gauge! I believe I have done business with the former owner and he has some good guns!

what a great buy you got there...it sure is a nice gun probly never shot much it being in such good condition....now you have to go to loading 8 ga shells....charlie

Charlie, I've already started but have some questions. I was about to start a thread in the reloading forum anyway so I'll do that now so I won't dirty up this thread.

New Parkers and other goodies too
 

As far as Parkers go I picked up a 1 frame G grade 32" 12 gauge top lever hammer gun:

I was also lucky enough to stumble into a 10 gauge D grade lifter that I have been finding out about here on the forum:

Then I picked up a clean 2 frame 12 gauge 30" Trojan:

But, during a South Dakota pheasant hunt I let one of my friends shoot a 12 gauge 30" 2 frame DHE and that was a mistake. He insisted on taking it home. Hell I didn't even want to sell it.....:banghead:

Then I found a little 20 gauge Lefever A grade Model 6 skeet gun with 26" barrels to go along with the one I have with 28" barrels;

A Browning BSS with 30" SST for the pheasant fields in the Dakotas:

Somehow I was lucky enough to run across a EE Lefever with beautiful 30" Damascus barrels

And lastly for SxS's I found a 32" LC Smith Rochester Ordnance gun that just happened to be one of the 8 Wildfowl guns they sent over for the guys to learn how to shoot planes in WW2.

Nothing fancy, but some real fun stuff.

Thanks everyone for participating in this post. It good to see all the activity in the Parker world

Great little gun John. I can see my neighbors house from my den, and he has a PH 20 with steel barrels that he has had since he was a kid, and he is over 80 now. Cant get him to sell it to me, but I casually bring it up every time I see him. Maybe one of these days.
