Default July Home Page Photo

A pretty darned, nice photo for our July Home Page. I'll bet there's a story or two behind that nice ol' gun. Great selection.

From nearly one end of the Parker spectrum to nearly the other!

Great choice! - Nice contrast!

Nice cover photo but we are trapped in the house and now I get to think of turkey season so far away.
What shells are those?

Thanks John! I am flattered

It is a 200,000 sn range so no meaningful records. I bought it from John Allen.
