Ah well, We all do things we later regret: I am on my 3rd Parker Repro 28 Gauge, and once had a 12 Ga repro. I've loved them all, wish I had every Parker I traded over the years, but wish I had other things I thought would never end as well (grin)
My current repro 28 is straight stocked, double triggered 28 inch and beaver tailed.
You can have it when as they say, it's pried it out of my cold, dead hands. It's not the prettiest wood, but.....it's feel between the hands makes up for that.
I also have a 32" 12 ga VH restocked (the old stock was ruined) by an older genius into insanely figured walnut with a big beavertail fore end which blisters trap targets, ducks and roosters...but carrying it very far is tiring for an old guy who once carried a Browning 30" full choked A5 all day like it was nothing. I guess the difference between 15 years old and 72 years old?
I have a son, and 4 grandsons who will each inherit a decent side by side. I haven't decided who gets what, except for my son. Maybe draw straws?
