410's, 28ga and 16ga have little appeal to me. Upgrades, fully refurbished and customs have no appeal. Guns below a DH Parker, CE Foxes and EE Lefevers at this point in my collector life have little appeal unless they are uncommon like 20ga Damascus Parkers or graded 20ga Foxes.
I gravitate to waterfowl guns especially big bore Parkers and Super Foxes.
Interesting topic.

Craig ain't joking, of course you all know that. He looked at my 34" VR double trap gun with a trap comb that would work for a balance beam and casually commented, that's too small for me. Jokingly said of course. Craig shops in the men's department for sure

I’m not much of a pump person but I have two Model 12’s . Not really much on semi autos either but I do have an A-5 and a Benelli . I’ve lost my intrest in Browning Superposed’s but still have a couple . Other than the R-32/K-32/K-80/K-20 guns I’ve pretty much lost intrest in O/U’s . As to doubles the euro stuff doesn’t intrest me much anymore and I hesitate to say it but Fox and Smith don’t get the looks I used to give them . And as to more Parker’s I’d like a lifter 8 gauge , one or two more 10’s , 32” 16’s both hammer and hammerless , a 32” 20 hammerless and dare I say it a 30 or 32 inch hammerless 28 . But I’m not holding my breath for any of them . Oh yeah I almost forgot I shot someones VHE 16 gauge skeet over the past weekend , I wouldn’t mind one of those if I ran across one . Took a couple shots with a friends DHE 12 34” shooting sporting today and as you might expect I wouldn’t mind one of those but I doubt I shoot it any better than my DH 12 32” pigeon gun .
