No new Parkers but a few "classics" in my mind. Sold a couple Parkers then acquired a classic Browning 1959 20, RNLT, a 20 and a 28 Perazzi. I did add a 30", 20ga. Fox A grade. Shooting a flat or more per week just puts a heavy strain on the old Parkers, Foxes and Lefevers to name a few. The Perazzi and the Browning can better handle the volume and if they break they are easily fixed.

Craig, I like the word "adopted." I've been adopted by two Parkers, an AHE and BHE and a collection of original Parker catalogs. The Boss says I'm done for the year...and maybe beyond.
