GH Lifter in SD

[Jeff S.]

I’m primarily a Fox guy, but when I’m in South Dakota it’s nice to take the big bore G Lifter for a stroll through the cornfield.

Looking good!

NICE!!

But it can’t be a GH as the H means hammerless.

And, since it not a Fox, you don't need Duct Tape to hold it together.

I guessing that you noticed the duct tape on the Parker.

I wanted to hold off on the repair until after pheasant season.

Mr. Edgar, the stock is in transit to “a guy” to be repaired. Actually there was a small chip of wood from a previous repair that had become loose. I put the duct tape on the grip to ensure that I didn’t lose the chip.

I think these old Parker “big bores” are pretty interesting. Some guy named J. G. Curtis ordered this 6 frame “G” back in 1881. Since it weighs a hefty 11 lbs. 8 oz. one can assume he was a waterfowler. It sure would be fun to have a list of the game taken during it’s life. I’m just trying to keep the spirit alive. I shot a rooster with it last year, and then another one this year. It’s a lot o fun swinging this behemoth at a speeding pheasant.

By “Big Bore” that is what I think it is correct ?
