SC Trap

Don't stop shooting it. You will not hurt it. I have put 25,000 rounds in mine and it still purrs along. They are great guns. Congrats on getting your. Frank

Seems loose when it is open
Seems to lock up tight when closed
Shoots nice…...

My first Parker trap gun was purchased in 1973. I have been shooting it for forty years. I don't think we can wear these things out. By the way, who was the first purchaser of your gun? He may be a famous shooter.

Bill
It was ordered by Honeyman Hardware Co of Portland OR on March 9 and shipped on June 6th 1918
I wish I knew the history or how it got to be listed as straight grip and it is the pistol grip
Another interesting fact in the letter is the LOP was 15"
And the cost was 150.00 (a lot of money in 1918)

Ha! That means you are shooting a Parker! My SBT S#177123 drops right open and locks up like a safe.

I have a Browning Superposed that was heavily used. I just wanted one. I overpaid. The gun is okay, well worn, and it shoots just great! Open the lever and it drops open. It is a tad loose when it is open, but when locked up, it is tight as a drum.
