I may be the only person to get anything out of the Simmons/Parker project, and that was only because the guy who started the project, Reggie Jamison, stuck by his word to me and had the project finished by Brad Bachelder. It started out as a O-frame 16 gauge hammer gun with badly pitted barrels. When finished I got a 32" mono-blocked 20 gauge O-frame hammer gun. The rib has the proper matting with a Parker roll mark on top of the rib. The matting, roll-marking, barrel striking, or the mono-blocking were done nicely. There is only the faintest ripple in the barrels where they had to be contoured. Original forend fits the new barrels. Swings great and is death on doves and clays. I should send it to Mr. Dudley for a new stock. I've never posted pictures because I could never get good detail of the barrels or the rib. It was in Sanford last year and a few people have seen it.
