Default Hello all

My name is Scott, and I inherited my Parker 20ga from my late grandfather, Seth Richardson, who was at one time Assistant US Attorney General under Truman. He was a well-known big-game hunter and adventurer at the time, and he was the Justice Department counsel during the Congressional investigation of the Pearl Harbor attack. He also chaired a loyalty board for the Labor Department in the 1950s at the request of President Truman, despite his being a staunch Republican.

I'll be posting information on the gun in the near future.

Thanks Scott. You should check availability of a letter for that Parker. Membership could save you money in the long run. Look forward to photos. Many knowledgeable and willing members here to provide information. Bob

Sounds like a great gun with a great history. Do you know what grade gun it is? The folks here are really helpful and knowledgable. Pictures and or serial number will allow it to be identified and get you many helpful suggestions. WARNING!! This website can be habit forming!!
