A good friend decided to move out of his Parkers and into another area of collecting. I was fortunate enough to get the call. I now own two Fabulous grade 7 12 bores.
I also bought what I suspect is the only 20 bore 32" cutaway gun at the G&D auction earlier this year. Sold off a bunch of dust collectors. Looking to add. Time to go duck hunting first- Headed to Manitoba tomorrow!

Me too, Dean. That has planted a thought in my mind as a nice touch on a "customized" gun that would have no real collector value.

I sent one down the road in a buy / trade deal for a VHE skeet. That's the only gun I've picked up in a year or so, just not much I want these days.
