Garry I do believe that is the finest Parker I have ever had the pleasure of owning. Beautiful gun and as you stated, ohhhhhhhhh the wood! It is much more suited to your passion and looks much better on you than it ever did me.
Enjoy it.

Thanks, Randy (and Reggie!), I'm so glad that the barrels weren't two inches longer.

Mr. Roberts you are correct, BUT it wouldn’t likely have made it to TN.

Randy, Not 20 minutes ago, I said nearly the same thing to another member. Not the owning part, regrettably, but having seen. Now I have to go downstairs and apologize to my BHE20.
