I was just about to turn 50.A friend and gun dealer invited me to go along to the Tulsa Gun Show in April 10 years ago.I had been saving up for my first double and decided it would be a 16 gauge.Lots to choose from if you've ever been to Tulsa.I came home with a very nice LC Smith.The Parkers,known to me as the Cadillac of doubles back then were just not affordable for me.Since then I have accumulated several doubles from all the american gun makers and finally 3 years ago at 57 purchased my first Parker,a 12 gauge V grade.It is in very good condition and proved itself 2 seasons ago with a limit of teal on opening day.I have since acquired a couple more,the last one being a Trojan 20 gauge which is just waiting for hunting season this fall to help me harvest a couple teal and maybe a rooster or two.I hope to add a PH or a D grade to my collection someday.The hook is set.
