John, why don't you like the gun at Green Top enough to buy it? I have been visiting Green Top for decades and have never bought a gun there. Oh, I see the price is in the stratosphrere. Oh, well.

As I have said before the SBT are the next "Hot" item. And the prices are steadily rising.....

Bill - Doc Truitt only likes the guns with two barrels. I looked at that gun the other week. It's on consignment, but the owner wants too much money. Do all SBTs have such thick barrels? That one has a barrel that would do a Mossberg proud it's so robust.

Thanks for responding to the inquiry. Sounds like there is a lot of variation in bore diameter and choke constriction. I should probably send off for a letter. There may be more to the story. Cabelas has a straight stock SC with nice wood and 32" bbls.

Trap Guns
Parker SBT #193918 This gun is a B Grade with an Acme Steel 32" barrel. Bore is .738 and and .038 choke that is 4 and 1/2". long . Measures .700 at the muzzle. and the rib is tight.
 Has Remington Date codes "XPP3"This thread caught my interest,soooooooo I took this old gun out today along with 2 boxe's of #3 hard shot (hand loads) to see how it would shoot. It shot very tight and about 70 30 up. I shot some patterns at 60 yds. into a snow bank and they really looked good. They also killed l what I shot them at. If a person could get along with out that second shot this gun would make a good late season Pheasant gun, or a good Crow gun. I may even try it next year. I hunt with a couple of no saftey guns so the saftey thingy is a non issue. Good Luck David Lien Last edited by David Lien; 01-26-2011 at 12:44 AM.. Reason: Mistake |

An update....I was looking at the rib situation this evening and lo and behold the pin at the end of the rib at the breech is not a pin but a 4-40 screw with about an 1/8" of thread counter-bored into the rib. Now I can see why these screws can work themselves loose after 1000's of rounds.

Dave,
I was a little perplexed at your last reply so I looked at my SBT. I looked for the pin/screw with the naked eye and didn't see it. Only after I got a magnifying glass was I able to detect the round circle indicating that the pin/screw was there. The matting and the blueing was perfect. I always assumed that the rib was held on the breech with solder. How can the screw work it's way loose when the matting on the pin head lines up perfectly with the rest of the matting on the rib? How do you know the dimensions of the screw? Did you take it out? Inquiring minds want to know

Kurt,
You coming to the show this weekend? If so, I've got a handful of hulls for you. DLH
