Opps I forgot my Eagle Longrange that came from a PGCA member. Mint original condition, straight stock, double triggers and extractors, checks all my boxes. I'm hoping 2019 will be just as kind to me from a gun collection angle.

Somehow this seems appropriate here ......:


After the honeymoon, Tom was welding some stuff in the garage for fun.

His new wife was standing there by the bench watching him.

After a long period of silence she finally said: "Honey, I've just been thinking; now that we are married, maybe you don't need to spend so much of your time out here in your garage and could consider selling some of your machinery and stuff … like your gun collection, fishing gear, boat, and lose all those stupid model airplanes. And sell that vintage hot rod sports car, and dump that home brewing kit"

Tom got a horrified look on his face and silently stared at her. She said, "Darling, what's wrong?"

He replied, "Nothing … but for a minute there, you were starting to sound like my ex-wife."

"Ex-wife!?" she screamed, "YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU WERE MARRIED BEFORE!"

Tom replied, “I wasn’t..."

First Parker we ever had was a 12 VHE on a 1 frame which we still have . But the 16 VH on the 1 frame I got a couple months ago seems a bit more dainty shall we say .

16 gauge hammer guns are the things dreams are made of.
