Best Deal on a Parker in your Buying Career

[Bill Murphy]

My first Parker is my favorite deal. A VH 28 gauge I bought on a skeet field for $130 as I recall. The longest search is an A. P. Curtis Parker try gun that I first saw as a very young man and finally pried it away from the owner probably thirty years later. The best financial deal was a near gift from a shooting friend, an AHE double trap with a long Maryland history. I said "near gift", but that was a bit of an understatement. I told the owner that the gun was worth over ten thousand dollars. He insisted that I write him a check for $2200.00. I don't know his motivation, but I have had decades of enjoyment from that gun.

Almost 20 years ago I bought a DH 12 gauge off one of the internet gun sites. Bad pictures and no mention of the grade, but I could tell it had substantial engraving. Price was $400, so I bit. After receiving the gun, I ordered a letter. That revealed the gun had been ordered by a guy named Fred Kimble of Peoria, Illinois. The rest is history.
