The only Parker
 
Here at the world pigeon shoot only 1 Parker in fact very few side by sides. I wish I had more since the Europeans wanted to shoot it all day long and into the nite. 45 bird race day 2 and came up with a 41 with her. She sports 32's and she swings nice for the faster birds here. I think shopping will be in order for a 30 Incher for the kings cup pigeon shoot in Spain.

Where is this shoot being held? How is your Parker set up for triggers?

41 of a 45 bird race... I don't think 2" will give another bird but I think the shooter can do it.

Mark,

I've often read your posts but never realized that you are "over there". Please show us photos of your "now famous" European Parker Pigeon Gun!

My Parker pigeon gun is a PHE vent rib 30" gun. In my diminished physical condition, 30" is more than enough. Good luck in your search for a 30" Parker.

Glad to know they're still shooting pigeons in Spain, always good to hear some of the old famous venue's are still in operation.

Its in Portugal this year. I'm only here for the week, not much of a social bug or card player. I just love shooting pigeons and being able to speak Italian sure helps:-) nothing like sitting in the stands watching flyers all day not to mention the clubs are first class.

Hi Mark,

Would you please take some photos of the event, club, your gun, and so on and then share with us? The whole affair sounds like a grade event of years gone by...

Respectfully,
Mark

I don't know about outside the US, but at pigeon shoots here, cameras are not well thought of.
