Maybe for some of our members, but I would not want to hear the answer to "i will offer you $2599 for your gun".

Well, Reggie, I showed the listing to my wife and she pointed out that the initials on the gold plate were "HG" and not "GG" and therefore my name was not on the gun.()

The engraving on this gun is spectacular, and I'll bet it would drop a rising wild Bob from over a Gordon Setter's point quite well indeed.

Upon closer inspection of the photos, I think I can see GG engraved near those setters on the frame.

The bottom of that gun is something else!

I think that is the most attractive Parker I have seen! The half pistol grip. The engraving. The 26” barrels choked for the uplands!

I wish I could find the emoji for "drool."

Why would someone want to carry something so pedestrian afield?

Nice gun overall, but I see no need for stags on a bird gun. I'd much rather see Count Gladstone on that trigger plate.

I never understood why anybody would want stags on a shotgun either. I would much rather have dogs or birds. I have to admit though that it is beautiful engraving. Does anybody have a value on what this gun is worth? Knowing Tony he probably has a crazy price on this gun.

Any rumors out there about what this gun sold for?
