My Parker 28

[Phil C]

Fred asked about my 28 gauge that I have replaced my Francotte with. Here it is. I have had it out an taken a few quail with it before I the season wrapped up this year. Took it along with a Repo 28 that IMy hunting partner shot that day. My original is Choked Mod and Full with 28" barrels. On a 0 frame. With RST woodcock loads it does the trick. I hope to write a story for the Parker pages about my first hunt with the gun soon.

Very nice Phil. I saw a DHE 410 today and it was the perfect gun except for the price

Phil ,That's a Beauty !!!!!!!!!!! I had a OO Frame 28 Ga. DHE with 30" Barrels and believe it or not never cared for the long barrels and ended up selling the gun ! If it would just have had 26" Barrels ,I would have never parted with it , I have since picked a nice VH Grade ,not near as nice as the DHE but I shoot her pretty well ! Thanks for posting Pics. always nice to see a beautiful gun !

The engraving is spectacular. Anyone have a guess who might have done it? Looks a step above the normal to me.

Jeff ,You were here it was just a couple of years ago , I actually sent the gun down to Chuck B. and he advertised and sold it for me ! It was a nice gun , Brad Bachelder refinished it for me ,I just never really took a shine to it ,I Know ,I Know , BUT IT WAS A DHE 28 GAUGE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Russ must agree with you most of my bird guns have 26" barrels. I shoot short barrels very well over the dogs, that said 28" barrels are a nice compermise.
Chris Dawe just finished up a stock for my 32" VH 20, which has not been shot yet. It does look really nice with those long slim barrels. I'm think dove this September may be in trouble.

That's a beautiful gun Phil!

Is it on the 0-frame or the 00-frame?

Extractor or ejector?

[Fishtail]

Occasionally I'll run across someone who will opine that a Repro 28 D Grade is every bit the gun that an original is. It only takes a look or two at this gun to see just why they're wrong.

It's an extractor gun on an 0 frame. Here is the letter on the gun.
