Here you go buddy...
Yes, I have to admit to being a Model 21 collector. But, I have seen the light and now have a very nice Parker. And the Parker community comprising this web site have been extremely accommodating. Very rewarding.

I sadly have to admit I no longer own a Parker. I only had the one, a 1911 VH 12ga 30" F/F but I had the choice to keep it or move it and a pair of graded Lefevers to fund a 1928 NID4E 16 ga 2bbl set. I just HAD TO HAVE the NID as a mate to my 1927 NID4E 12ga 2bbl set so the others were moved to make way for the new addition. My heart has really been set on a 20ga Parker anyways and I have enough 12ga's of other makes that the 12ga Parker could move along without breaking my heart too badly and as you are aware Bill and I'm sure a few others are as well graded Ithacas are much easier to attain financially when you are a blue collar worker, especially in Canada where the market is ultra soft and often bargains can be had compared with values in the lower 48. Admittedly these Ithacas fit me extremely well too and I shoot them better than I did my VH Parker and I really like to hunt these guns.

I had a BHE live bird gun with floral engraving it had 30 inch Damascus barrels and a Monte Carlo stock. It shot so high it was hard to shoot sporting clays with it as I had to float the bird. It was awesome at trap however.

I have a 32 inch BHE 20 with floral engraving, straight grip, splinter forearm

No need to apologize Frank. You can easily find another Parker but those 4E's are gorgeous.
