[Dean Romig]

Call me "old fashioned" or call me "a nostalgic old fool" but there's not a much better way to spend the evening in the "gun room - library" cleaning, admiring, and fooling with nice ol' Parkers than with Pandora's "40's Music" or "50's" on the radio and an iced adult beverage of choice. It brings me back to the days when I was up in my room "doing my homework" (yeah, right!) cleaning and polishing that old Trojan twelve after a late afternoon's hunt - with my Mother's radio on downstairs playing some of those same tunes. I remember that Trojan was near perfect except for that 3/4" patch of rust scale on the left barrel right tight up against the breech edge.... oh, and except for that chip I broke off the end of the forend by pulling too near the edge. I've fixed a few of those over the years, and today there are better ways of removing a Trojan's forend.
But back to the topic.... Music can really take you back in time. Try it yourself sometime - it's a very pleasant way to spend an evening in the gun room.
