Bruce Buck wrote of his experience with a single trigger Parker Reproduction 28 gauge. Many members shoot a reproduction or two and enjoy them. Bruce is correct that the 20 gauge models were a bit heavy for a 20 gauge Parker. The 28 gauge reproductions are wonderful guns and many times less expensive than an original Parker 28 gauge!

The single trigger problems can be corrected by a knowledgeable doublegun smith. The short length of pull cannot easily be corrected except by a slip on pad.

If you want a small bore Parker then a reproduction may be for you. Or, maybe not...
