Fell off the Wagon!

I kind of started with Foxes when I had my custom Sterly 16 built. Still a very pretty gun that I shoot well, and just 6 lbs with 30” barrels. My collecting has now been focused on Parkers, although I also have been trying to fill in representitve examples of each gauge gun from the other “majors” Smith, Ithaca, Fox, Baker and LeFever.

This little sterly feels great, and I think I will like it on flushing birds, quail, snipe etc. i have quite a collection of small bore 24” and 26” guns, as I prefer those for flushing and snap shooting.

I love the compactness and simplicity of the Fox guns, and the durability. You seldom see a fox that has been shot out of its stock.

I'm with you in the short barrel bird choked guns or atleast what was referred to as bird chokes when we were all young IC/M .

Now what I'd really really really like are Parker EH 10's with factory original 24" and 26" barrels !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG I need to excuse myself I was thinking about EH 10's with those short barrels and REALLY got excited LOL's !

I may have found my 410 hammer gun. There is an Army & Navy with 30 inch barrels available

You are cracking me up Brother. Earlier in this thread you were staying away from the websites and if you could just make it through the Southern you were golden. You are a real Rock. Thank goodness I'm not weak like that.

I think I need an intervention.

[C.O.B.]

I'll admit that I'm WEAK and I NEED an intervention. I have failed the 12 step program so many times I'm not even allowed to participate anymore. BUT a 30 inch barreled 410 hammer gun is akin to a 32 inch 20 besides it's not that expensive compared to a $50K Purdey

The only other gun that might be of interest is a DH/DHE Damascus 20 simply because I have a couple of GH/GHE's and a CHE.
