Boxbirder, where was that pigeon shoot that you attended 25 years ago and saw a Miller trigger Parker on the rack? My Miller trigger Parker pigeon gun is my go to gun for everything, but especially pigeons. I actually bought the gun for pigeons but found it a great general purpose gun because it has two sets of barrels.

Greetings Bill,

The first time I saw that Parker was out in Strausstown, Pikeville, I believe also Valley Forge. You know how pigeon shooters are some like to talk while others just stay focused. The first 21 I ever shot was a lawyers by the name of Joe. He always sported a wool shooting sweater in the colder months. I believe his was a Grand American. I had asked Jimmy Pigeon if I could shoot his Parker and he declined. Later on the Lenick brothers let me shoot there 21's and that is what I strived for.
Months later John Terelli explained that I should shoot an O\U but I just never totally liked them or the looks.

After shooting pigeons all over the US and Europe you see all kinds of guns, each area has there favored guns. 2 years ago down in Mexico many like the Beretta 391.
