Default I just can't resist these sweet little skue's Parkers

Well, I have been dealing on a 28 PR for a month now. The seller finally realized my offer was fair. It is on its way to me from Florida as I type this thread. I have good reason to buy this one...Here are the particulars, PG-DT-SF 14 5/8 pull, 26" Q1/Q2 and 28" M/F I like the longer pull and I did not have a set of Q1/Q2 factory barrels in 28ga. My Young wife does have a set with those barrels, and I have used her gun in P.A. hunting grouse and doodles with good success....(-: I wanted my own set. I will shoot and compare the 28" full barrel that are known to be way over choke for the 28Ga and see how well it patterns or does not? If it has poor patterns, I will have that choke opened to .025 instead of the factory .038 that most all PR 28ga. came with. I only have two pics of the gun enjoy...Seller was asking 8500.00 for a long time, I did not pay that! but I did pay more than past buys, no regrets. SXS Ohio The setter with me in the picture is Miss Daisy May, she is 1 year and 8 months and will be a big part of this falls hunting along with Charlie Rae, my real special Gordon setter pup that will be two in November.

Daisy likes to drink...Burbon or beer she likes them both. She is pointing the last sip in my beer glass in that picture at the brewery.

Congratulations, Kenny. I’ll drop by someday after you’ve received it and check it out! I’ll be curious to see what you do with the Mod/Full barrels!

Yes, this was listed for several weeks. I made my offer early on and he blew me off. After no interest on his auction, I renewed my offer and had a little dialog about PR guns, still no dice. Then I see he dropped the opening bid to 7500.00. I renewed my same offer that was just a little under that all along. He felt I should pay the asking price that it was a good deal. So, I just waited, about a week and a half passes, and he called me to except my original offer. Still more than I ever paid for a 28 two-barrel set, but I am extremely happy to get it....(-: and I don't look back on a done deal. I may look at selling one of my other guns that I like less or don't plan to hunt with. I tell my wife, oh, it's just simple math, add and subtract...(-:
