Not much Bill, it's not here yet.
I'll say this much - it's not a Parker. .

Here are some pics from my files of some that will see the color tour this season. It's raining and I'm fighting a cold so until I can get some pics of the new additions these will have to suffice. They are VHE 28ga 28 inch barrels skt/skt, CHE 20 28 inch IC/M, GHE 20 Damascus 26 inch IC/M, H&H 26 inch IC/M and Gunners Gun 28 inches SKT1 and LM.

The opening of grouse season here in Utah is just a few days away. Even in the high up on the mountain the temperatures will be bumping up into the upper 70s low 80s; so, I may pass grouse up and go shoot doves this weekend.
It seem more and more the shotgun I take out of the safe and carry on the mountain is this 12 gauge Belgian guild gun sold by William Read & Sons of Boston.

Here are a few more. They are an AAHE (upgrade) 28ga. This is a two barrel set 26 IC/M and 28M/F, Charles Boswell Damascus 20ga 28 inch Damascus IC/M. A joy to carry at under 6lbs, CHE Damascus 20 before the barrels were redone, DH 16 on an O frame Damascus 26 inches IC/F. I was hesitant about this choke combination but have come to appreciate it especially in the heavy foliage of early season and the longer opportunities presented in the later season after the leaves have fallen.

Lets try the pics again....cold medicine I guess
 I don't know how the pictures got messed up but the side lock is a LeFever 16ga 28 inch IC/F. The small picture is the DH 16. I fight with technology

[QUOTE=Rich Anderson;223899]As August ebbs into September and the temperatures begin to slowly fall there are some Red Maple that have begun to turn color, it's the cusp of Grouse season. Our season opens September 15th and it's usually warm and the cover is extremely thick but it is Grouse season so one does what they have to be afield.
Hey Rich, stick the grouse guns up your caboose!! Early September in my neck of the woods = hungry stripers, alligator blues and drag-melting albies! Grouse hunting in September?? Really? Really? It's a colonoscopy without the Propofol!! The Password is: Prickly Heat!! Please don't talk to me about bird hunting until late October. I'm not letting go of Summer '17 just yet.  Sincerely, Ansley H.

Quit being such a woos. It's bird season so stop flogging the water and dragging poor defenseless fish around by the lips (how barbaric is that to put a hook in their lips then drag them through the water
 ) Summer is after all a prelude to the greatest season of them all FALL. Charles Parker
