Nice group of P guns Craig but #3 from the top makes my heart flutter. It would look nice next to my DHE 32" 20 with a straight grip. It's making the trip to Ernie's next month.

Charlie that D makes me smile every time I look at it, 15 pounds of Parker not exactly a quail gun! Condition collectors would dislike the gun in that the CC is gone as is most of the damascus pattern on the barrels, the owner stamped his initials on both sides of the stock that has worn checkering-------but to me it's a beauty. Who was the man who ordered and used the he** out of it?? It has never been touched in my opinion and I hope it stays that way, a closet find not a closet queen.

I bought the book on Hunt recently. My favorite of his is the black ducks on Long Island in one of the old anthologies
