Newest stallion in the coral. Parker SA, 32 inch barrel, Monte Carlo stock. Excellent dimensions. This is another Shelly Gitman gun. The man had good taste.

Shot my first 25 straight with this ole boy today. Took me a few rounds before I figured out the POI. All good now.

Is it going to be your 16 yard or Handicap gun? If you get tired of it, let me know. j/k

Happy you found that one...gorgeous, gorgeous Parker.

How fitting that a gun so special should find its way to someone who knows how to — and will — use it.

Good question. 16 yard shooter for sure. Not choked as tight as I would like for handicap. It's something like IM or LF, I think. Will definitely be a backup, possibly take over in the starting lineup. We'll have to wait and see.
