Thanks guys, I'm going to get the forend done to match the stock a little better.
Possibly one of these days I might have the barrels reblued, I will hunt this gun a lot so I just can't justify spending a ton of money on it, I love the look of an older gun that has been used but not abused.
For a shotgun that spent it's life on a Nebraska farm it is in good shape, other than the cracked stock the wood and metal is in good shape with only a couple very very small dings in them.
I'll try some rst spreader loads in it for close in quail work, depending on how they pattern I might get the chokes opened up a bit, as most of my hunting will be over my pointer.
Guess if I don't spend to much more on it that will make it easier to buy another Parker, possibly a 12 or even a 10 for ducks!!
