[Phil Yearout]

I've never had the inclination nor the income to be a "collector", so my guns are all shooters, and lower grades at that. Most even have a minor issue or two which helped bring them down to my pay grade. I've always loved Foxes and 16ga's in general, and am lucky enough to be the caretaker of a few. A few years ago I thought it would be neat to have a Parker in a cabinet as well (seems like I read something similar father back in this thread!) and looked at a nice restocked Trojan 16. Unfortunately I dawdled and someone else ended up with it. I was still kicking myself when another Trojan 16 surfaced; someone had polished the action so I made an offer and was amazed when it was accepted! It's been my only Parker until the infamous SBT I've posted about elsewhere. I like to think of myself as an indiscriminate appreciator of 16ga's, however, so if an LC Smith or NID falls into my lap, they'll probably go into the cabinet as well.
