Nice choice guys!! Great barrel length, chamber length (2 3/4" effectively) and chokes, to say nothing of that nicely defined straight grain!

That gun belongs in a case expertly fitted by Matt. Professional presentation and the accouterments sell tickets.

Dean, do you know this Matt fella and might you have some persuasive powers over him to make this happen.

PGCA friends, my sincere apology for the delay in the tickets, they went out on Monday Jan 27 and likely some of you have received them by now.

Updates on dimensions:
LOP 14 3/4” drops 1 5/8” and 2 7/8”

I was not able to get great pictures outside until today. I am a huge fan of this gun. With exception of a very tasteful freshening up of the wood from our good friend Brian Dudley it is original! The Damascus is strong, you will see it is D4 quality. The screws are clean and it locks up tight! This is an exception Parker and it’s always exciting to see a small gauge Damascus gun with ejectors.

Enjoy!
