18 ga parker

[Bill Murphy]

For someone who wants it, it is throwaway cash for sure. To start a conversation on which Parker has buyer character and which ones don't, start a thread that asks the question. My take is that guns that were used in historic sports like waterfowl hunting, pigeon shooting, early trap shooting, are of interest. Owner provenanced guns are interesting. However, I don't see the lust for the 24 gauge and 18 gauge Parkers, rare as they are. Sure, I would like to own them, but I don't pursue them like I do some others. The 24 and the 18 did not spend time in the field like the others, although the 18 gauge does have a waterfowling story, true or not.
