I do not dabble in “English” guns, but I will pay a premium for a Parker with a “straight grip.”

Default A Straight Grip 20 Bore
While I am not a fan of the straight stock guns there are configurations such as a 20 gauge with factory 2 7/8 chambers (letters) and 32" Titanic tubes that tend to lure me in

This one being a 1903 DH, likely engraved by William Gough.

Ugh! A straight/splinter on a 20! You'd better get rid of that (and I'll be glad to help)

I will keep that in mind Garry should the mood for downsizing hit me. As of today I am still taking nourishment freely and unaided but you never know

I've owned a mix of straight and PG guns over the years, and have developed some specific tastes in such.
To me, a straight grip is best on light field grade guns, with double triggers. I'm not a fan of mixing straight grips with beavertail fore ends, and single triggers.
Just my opinion, and mileage varies.
