Well it's not a Parker (but a few Parkers were traded for them) But they are my favorites. The engraving is like a painting coming alive. And I loved hunting them down a Morrison Pines. 28 ga 5lbs 6 oz's I think.

Duh... I knew that. I think we shot them at Drake last year. Just bustin' ya'.

We will be shooting a few 28 ga. rounds so make sure they are lubed and ready.

Very nice! Michael McIntosh had a Purdey back action that looked like that gun and I always thought it was cool

I have a Stephan Grant back action that I have taken To Morrison Pines. I'd like to find an open choked 20. I have a Boss but it's pretty tightly choked. Quail are the only birds I hunt using a hammer gun.

Thanks Dean,

I particularly enjoy shooting Jones Underlevers, IMHO they are terrifically ergonomic. Especially when walking and reloading. Ths gun also has 30” tubes, and weighs a touch over 6lbs.

This 1913 vintage Ansley H. Fox A-Grade is my usual pick when Quail are the intended game --

07. Skitso, 1913 Fox 20 and Quail 2.jpg

but this 1938 vintage A-Grade could also be called upon --

Both of my Parker Bros. 20-gauges are way too tightly choked. The 2-frame is too heavy as well. Haven't yet gotten the chokes hogged out on the 0-frame.
