Funny thing Dean as I read your post that gun and I were passing through Wilkes-Barre on the way to Gamecreek in NJ for a couple day hunt with Dad. We ended our first day a few hours ago and the pup did well and the CHE was deadly on the birds. It has quickly become my favorite gun to shoot with the 28 gauge an extremely close second.

Thanks all for the photos.
Garry- ill circle back if I get the project going. Right now Im assessing options. I also obtained a straight trigger guard from a member and this is another likely starting point.

The wonderfully sculpted 'oyster shell' grip that Bruce shows was a very rare variation of the "ball grip" offered by Parker Bros. on hammer guns. I think I've only seen three or four of them.

I,m always amazed and somewhat envious of all the beautiful Parkers that the members have. As one who has three parkers (two trojans and one VH with with non- original wood) it always a treat to see some of the gorgeous Parkers. To all members and associates have a nice holiday season

Nick, I believe each has its own unique beauty, from low end to high. You should share photos of yours.
