Back to the Parker issue, any reason you couldn't legally take him with a Parker loaded with 00 or 000 buckshot? Now that would really be something, a genuine Parker bear gun.
I had a bear attack my Britt while pheasant hunting. I shot it with a 12ga. DHE improved cylinder and 7 1/2 shot and it killed the bear. I wrote an article for the Parker Pages about it that was published a few issues ago. I call that gun my bear gun now.
