Let's see some wood!

I'm reminded of the adage that if you can't say anything good, then don't say anything at all.

Folks, lets be honest here. That gun in that condition is never going to be shot a great deal and would only be fired with proper light loads. It is just one lovely little gun. I've never seen wood like that on a Parker before.

My mother harped that to us 5 bratty Irish kids until it was engrained in our memories. I actually thought it was the rule on this forum.
Some people don't notice they are not being kind and don't do it intentionally.

I had never looked at this thread until today. Very nice wood fellows.
The Repros are under appreciated. They were by me until my son needed a 28 to shoot.
Thanks for starting this thread.

Actually, I like to see differing opinions on subjects. How else can one learn the full scope of a discussion point. I did not see a derogatory comment but, rather, an informed opinion albeit contrary to that of most responders.

Darn nice looking piece of wood and a beautiful small bore Parker.

I wish that I had kept my Repro. The wood on it was very nice

What some interpret as 'not good or nice' surprises me. If one can't make a statement based on observation and experience, then what can we do other than just say "nice gun" over and over again.

Here's the wood on a 28-ga. Parker Repro DHE 2-bbl. set, 26" Q1/Q2, 28" M/F, DT, SG and BT forend that I once had considered purchasing -- then I sobered up.

You actually passed on that gun Greg?

Yep, in an effort to get this thread back on the rails, I'm showing what I passed up many moons ago as there's just too much for us to see and enjoy without it getting mucked up by a bunch of off-topic posts.
