2 Frame DHE 20ga at Tulsa
 
Did anyone else see the 32" 2 Frame 20ga DHE at Tulsa? Neat gun!

the Widgeon Club guns were 1 frames - Right?

Good Morning Charlie, great to see your posts again!

Parkers were special ordered by weight. The frame size was determined by Parker Brothers and could be two or more frame sizes on a heavy 20 gauge. I'm not sure all the Widgeon Club guns were made on the same frame size. Josh, buy that gun.

One would suppose the appeal of a 2-frame 20 today is its rarity, what do suppose the appeal of one of these was back in the day when they could be ordered new?

That's a logical answer, but wouldn't a 10, 12 or even an 8 have been a more logical choice for yesteryear's meat hunter?

I would doubt the members of the Wigeon club and those who shared such thoughts - would take kindly to that moniker :corn:

nor would it fit those who currently shoot such guns in the marshes :)
