Default DH Damascus 12

In response to GunnerGrilli and the beautiful DH 12 he listed in the For Sale Forum.
I mentioned that I had the twin to his listed gun, and he asked that I post some pics.
Actually, though the engraving is very similar (what I based my comment on) mine is a FT Top Lever, with a safety, and a 2 Frame. So much for posting after a couple glasses of wine. That, and I try not to post on for sale items, but slip up once in a while.
This one has totally modern dimensions, tight chokes, and hits pheasants like a sledge hammer!

Thanks, guys. I've had a passion for modern dimensioned Parkers for quite a few years.
I use my guns, and have made some great memories in the field with them.
As an example. This gun went back to Ohio one year, and helped me to make a mark on both sporting clays, and Tower Pheasants.
An ounce and one eighth of 7s out of tight choked 30" barrels made poaching tower pheasants three pegs over not only possible, but logical. The British gun shooting guys just chalked it up to the Parker magic, I think.
With the right loads, that gun owns the real estate, wayyy out there!

If coveting wasn't a sin, I'd be coveting that gun. (Okay, I'm sinning.)
