Modern Dimensions for an Old Hammer-Gun
 
5 Attachment(s)
So I have been shooting my top-lever hammer gun lately and the fit was inconsistent. Too much drop, had to fiddly-fart with the mount, tried stick on combs and they didn’t do the trick. I sent the gun to Graco and they put an adjustable comb on the gun. Problem solved! Now the gun shoots where I’m looking and I don’t have to mess with my mount. It’s also a heck of a lot cheaper and quicker than a restock. Only thing I did was make two walnut spacers to fit between the comb and stock instead of the bright white vinyl washers.

We had 5 Parkers on the course today. Three 12’s, a 20 and a 16. Life is good, especially when you break birds!!

Hey, what else can you do to make up that much drop.

I needed 11/16”. Love the gun, but it needed work to make it as shootable as I wanted it.

I shot along with Mike and two other friends today. He was pounding the clays with his “new” TL hammer Parker. As compared with a month or so ago before he had the adjustable comb work done. Just sayin’

Heck of a stock for an old zero grade! Nice.

That is what I call an attractive piece right there Mike! Sure beats shortening your neck. Congrats!

If they had adjustable combs back then they’d have made it an option.
