Default 28 gauge Parker Repro Beavertail Forearm
If anyone knows of one floating around with hopefully Claro walnut please drop me a pm. Have a gun inbound and would love to find an original reproduction forearm to replace the splinter it is arriving with.

A 28 gauge Repro with a beavertail, regardless of the grip style, makes a great handling little gun. Good luck Tom.

Dean, got a 26" DT, PG with Q1 and Q2 chokes inbound. Exactly what I wanted except for the Beavertail Forearm. Hope it passes muster. Scheduled to arrive Monday evening.

Tom, that's exactly the gun I got for Kathy... 28 gauge, PG, DT, 26", Q1/Q2, BTFE. A wonderful grouse & woodcock gun.

I just bought a 28 DT, beavertail, straight grip Repro with 28" barrels, a hard gun to find. I think my next Repro will be a DT, beavertail, 26" gun, grip style either way. 26" Repros are the bargain these days and much easier to find than 28" guns.

Agree Bill, thats the one most folks want for sure. I wanted factory open chokes and DT and that pretty much turned into a 26" barrel gun. I shoot most of my birds at about 20 yards and those full/mod chokes can turn a Woodcock into a pile of feathers at that range. PS. Sure would like a factory beavertail forearm. I'm sure there are a few out there somewhere.

Tom, I may have what you are looking for. About 2 years ago, I purchased several Parker Repros and some additional items. If you haven't already located a BTFE, I can forward you pics of the BTFE I have on my shelf to ensure it may be what you are looking for and proper fit. Thanks, Mark

Mark, you're hurting me. You have extra forearms for 28 gauge Repros?? What do you have?
