Welcome Ruth. We're practically neighbors as I live in Wilmette. We're going to have to shoot some clays together. Sounds like you already found a place. I've been going to the Winchester Gun Club near Racine, nice little facility, its about an hours drive.

Also you need to come out to Pheasant Fest at the Schaumburg Convention Center the weekend of Feb 22,23,24. There will be 40+ Parkers on display and you'll meet a bunch of very knowledgeable PGCA members. Hope to see you there!

Hi, Ruth,

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on your "new" Parker. I'm pretty sure that we have been introduced to you in a way by posts from Richard, but in any event, I hope you enjoy your new gun and get lots of opportunities to shoot it. You have already had some good tips on some ways to connect more with the vintage gun shooting community. I hope you can find a good buddy or two to discuss your gun your new, developing passion for Parkers. I know you can come to "know" some of us through this Forum. There are lots of knowledgeable, good-hearted folks just a click away.
