PGCA Southern Side By Side Display Theme
 

In recognition of the Parker Gun Collectors Association (PGCA) 25th Year Anniversary in 2018, the display theme for the Southern Side By Side display at the PGCA/LCSCA tent will be "Parker Guns – The First 25 Years". So if you have a Parker Gun manufactured prior to 1895 please bring it to the Southern for display. Jim Hall has graciously volunteered to coordinate the display this year so please contact Jim by PM or via email at sjhall@haloisp.net.

What would be the serial number cutoff?

Serial No. 79560 was the last gun to be produced by Parker Bros. in 1893, their 25th year of producing shotguns.

So that would include all those Columbian Exposition guns?
And those wicked cool trade cards?

Sure - Why not?

I am going to try to bring one or two

I have 2 16 ga O frames that fit in that category, A GH 16 damascus and an O frame hammer 16.

I will bring a few also, most of my Parkers were made in the first 25 years, but I will also have a nice 16ga Trojan to present to some lucky youth shooter! Guys bring out your sons, grandsons, and great grandsons let's make this Youth shoot something that young folks will look forward to, Gary

Don't forget the daughters, granddaughters, and great granddaughters. It would be something to see one beat the boys. They are very important to the survival and future of shooting, guns, and collecting as you know. I have no daughters but lucky to have four granddaughters that I let shoot every chance I can. But they like girl things too much.

Absolutely, Jerry. My niece and my brother almost got a turkey together the other week. Women are a fast growing part of the shooting sports and that is good news
