The three P's of buying a Parker

C.O.B. · 09-25-2013, 10:56 AM

In real estate there are three rules location, location, location well sometimes when buying a Parker what is needed is persistance,persistance, persistance. I first learned of this gun almost a year ago and have been after it ever since. I sell insurance for a living so I know a thing or two about being persistant but not pushy. The owner always said when he was ready to sell it would come my way I just would remind him from time to time

Well the Big Brown Truck dropped this aff just a short time ago. A beautifull CHE damascuss 20 bore. Now I NEED to go to work!

Really nice gun.

But persistence? I think your 'in' on this gun was simply in knowing who had it, and in your good fortune that he did not feel the need to offer it for sale publicly.

I've been very persistent for years in privately buying, from a lonely widow, a 28ga. BHE with a straight stock and beavertail forend. The problem I face, though, is I have no idea where one is!

Must be nice to afford a gun like that - should have went into selling insurance.

Rich: In my dreams is the only way I would be able to hunt with this great 20 Ga. Parker. I do know of a nice 20 ga. that a gentleman has and I have been waiting to win the lottery to purchase from him. congratulations on a real beauty. Thomas
