Default Parker collection

Twenty years ago I bought a Reproduction in 20 ga, IC & mod, SST with an English stock and a splinter forend. I've shot Quail, Woodcock, Dove and even Ducks with it. Ten years ago I felt the need of a side by side specifically for Ducks so I started looking for a 12 ga Repro. I found a Steel Shot Special with Briley thinwall chokes, SST, English stock, and Beavertail forend. Fell in love with this gun too. I then had the Idea of having all gauges in the DHE line with similar specs. A couple of years later I bought a 28 with cylinder and IC chokes, SST, English stock and splinter forend. Last year I was fortunate to find two,.410/28 sets in a package deal, same specs as the other guns. Just last week I finally completed my "set". I bought a 16/20 set with the 16 ga Krieghoff barrels. I've lined them up by gauge in the gun case and really feel fortunate to be the caretaker of such fine shooting works of art. Bill
