Default Big Bore

So here's what happens when a Parker guy wants to get the next bigger gun. Yeah we've got these guys with their piddly little 8 gauges, but this is the real stuff.

We had some suggestions about what places might be in need of such a machine.

The guy up top looks like the #1 man in armor. Could it be? Oh, I forgot. He just played him in the movies.

I hope you asked him to one of your fezzant hunts this year - and added that he should bring his own "shootin' iron"..???

Some of those Kansas roosters get up about 200 yards before you get to them - and that would teach them....

Those crazy Ste. Gen boys. Yes, these things are smoothbores, so I understand. I'm not a tanker.

This is owned by one of the FOC'ers (Friend Of Charlie's) along with some other big mil equipment. He also owns a DH damascus 12, puny by comparision.

Yeah, but pretty impressive when mounted on tracks and painted olive drab.

There was something simular to that sitting in the middle of our dove field this year. At times it even made me a little spooky. Gerald.

Looks like the screws on the .50 have been tampered with! Also, the Browning looks to be re-greened.
