I actually have made a decision to not look for a hammer 20. There are so few and there are others who want them more than I do. Of course, that could change
Santa should be bringing a few more things for Christmas. Followed by the Grinch bringing the credit card bill shortly thereafter |

I have an early Model 21 12 gauge. Would love an early 20 gauge. Maybe next year . . .
Still trying to decide on a theme for next year. Small bores worked well this year. Have been considering rifles since I don't have very many and my son has taken such an interest in them. |

I was happy to add a very nice DH 12 ga with 30" Damascus barrels on a 2 frame. I've also been working on a DHE 0 frame 20 ga. but it looks like it will have to wait until spring. Stay tuned!

OK, non Parkers. For young Mills, I have scored a short barrel Winchester High Wall in .219 Donaldson Wasp, built by John Oberlies of Dayton, Ohio probably in the late thirties or early forties, a great varmint killer by the best custom rifle maker of the era. It is an addition to my long time 14 gun Oberlies collection. Another is a near mint, 1880s Lindner Daly hammer gun, a two barrel set, ten gauge, near Diamond Quality, marked by Thomas Golcher of Philadelphia with 28" and 32" wonderful Damascus barrels. My favorite Parker this year is a unique 30" 20 gauge Trojan, lettered by PGCA in that configuration. Another is a great little Inland Steel (General Motors) M1 Carbine, given to me by a very good friend who also owns General George C. Patton's DHE 20 gauge Parker bird gun, among other Patton memorabilia including THE 1913 Patton saber.
