Bob, you're cheating. That first picture is no Repro. Send us a picture of the whole back end of that gun.

OK, so it's a Repro. Tell us about the specs of this gun. Wait a minute, the outrageous gun had a red pad. Where is that gun?

Wouldn't it be great if we could get every Parker Repro owner that visits this thread to post pics of their Repros wood? If you're anything like me, you can look at gunstock wood for hours on end. Some Repro wood is flashy and striking while other Repro wood gets its beauty by being a bit understated, more subdued if you will, having a nice warm glow. It makes no difference, because in the end, they all have qualities that please the eye.

If every one of those that have a Repro would post pics to this thread, imagine the library of pics we would have for all of us to enjoy!

Yes Greg, I'm a wood nut. Brad Bachelder worked on the repros for me. My 20ga is nice too. That said, some of the nicest wood I have is on two Citori Gran Lightnings (12 &20), my Cole Beretta 3 barrel set and my Shilo Sharps Hartford model, but those guns don't fit here.

I think this is the best looking one I've had and it belonged to my best friend that passed away this past year. I sold it for his widow.

Bill, where are some pics of your guns?

I'm not a camera guy but here is one of mine. It is a 20, DT, PG, SF 26". The other side is similar.
