An optimistic seller...

Personally, I don't believe there was a large percentage of Repro buyers back in the day, nor today for that matter, that prefer to buy a Repro configured with a PG, BT and double triggers. Sure there are some, but not a lot -- maybe he was referring to rarity in that sense. Or, if this gun does indeed have a 14 7/8" LOP it might be rare in the sense there probably weren't a lot of Repros ordered with a custom LOP.

I will say that I have a sweet little GHE 20 that has DT/BT w/pistol grip 26" that is just about the perfect upland bird gun.

If I didn't already have that same Repro in 28 gauge with Q1/Q2 chokes I'd certainly be looking for one.

Greg,

Why don't you think many people would want a DT, PG, and small beavertail option?

It's not that people don't want them. There are, of course, quite a few that do. But, based solely upon the frequency of this particular trifecta of configurations available (PG, BT, DT) that I've seen in more than 35 years of interest in Parker Reproductions, I have seen far fewer of them than other configurations. If the demand was there, don't you think that there would have been more of this configuration produced?

Perhaps others that have followed the Repro market over the decades may have a different opinion on the numbers produced in each of the various configurations available -- and that's okay, as we all have opinions.
