I also have a lever gun problem
Mostly 1894s, and all 'special order'. I love 1/2 round barrels, Pistol grips and set triggers. Take downs are nice too. There's a 25-35 in there that has all that, with shotgun butt and Lyman 5A and 2A sights. I chased that one for years, and oddly, the owner came up to my table at Baltimore, and offered it to me in trade for one of my guns.
The '73 and the '95 .30US are both family guns. One time my wife said "Another Parker?" to which I replied "but I have more Winchesters". Not a convincing defense I guess. |

Our PA regular rifle deer season opened today. I saw about 12 does and passed on a small but legal buck. Rifle choice for today was my old Winchester M70 Standard in 270 caliber, 1955 gun with a period Balvar 8A scope in a B & L mount. I have several of these Balvars = great optics and that B & L mount once adjusted never seems to need further tinkering. This one is still where I set it decades ago for a pet load.

Frank, that's a pretty nice stock.
Something about hunting with a vintage gun makes getting old seem almost tolerable. |

Edgar, did you have the right picture of your smooth bore 61? Kind of odd to see a smoothbore with peep and rear sights. Or, did the smoothbore refer to the model 12?

Well you're right bill. I grabbed the wrong gun. All three have Lyman tang sites on them. I put that tang site on primarily because I had it. The pattern with the CCI shotshells is about 6" in diameter at 25 feet, so you really have to shoot it like a rifle.

Edgar I count 5 Parkers in the photo. There must be another wall somewhere?!
