I'd sure keep it, it sounds like a great gun in every aspect. Sure it would be nice if the barrels were not cut but really....who cares? I think you made a great find and a great deal.

One of my favorite shooting Parkers is a GH 16 with barrels cut from 30 to 28 1/2. Not a collector piece but an honest gun to shoot

The DHE-16 is a keeper for sure! If the barrels had not been cut back 2" it would have cost or sold for 3 or 4 times what I paid for it! I am working on a comb riser for it like the one I made for my little CSMC Fox, I like a high dimensions, I do not cover up the target...keeping it just above the barrels. It will see the grouse woods this fall...(-: Thanks all SXS ohio

Kenny;
It was nice meeting you at Hausmann's and putting a face with a name. I really liked your comb riser. Great idea.

This wood riser is attached with automotive two sided tape. I inlaid the tape for a flush fit.

I am working on the comb riser for the DHE-16. I have been taking pictures as the work progresses. I have a good 6 hours getting the part made, fitted and ready to test shoot. The part is now ready to test for proper rise amount and point of impact. I will install riser to the gun with masking tape for this test. I plan to post all the pictures when the project is finished.....thanks all,,,SXS ohio

As we talked about at Hausmanns, we need to try and get together and shoot, since we are only a couple hours apart. I shot at Briar Rabbit in Zanesville, Oh yesterday--that is not to far from Matt either. Used my little VHE 20. I can bring my DHE 16. My GH 16 O frame came with 27" barrels, but bought it cheap because of that and it is one of my favorites to shoot.
