Jack, We down here in the South where it is warm and balmy are being subjected to some our your "frozen wastland" weather. Please take it back! I refuse to get addicted to it. So unfair. Does shooting at the storm help? Please advise! David

David: No, no, no.......... You don't want it taken back. It is not unfair. Did you not get the memo? It has been sent as a gift. Yes, you can shoot at the storm and it is really really good. It will enhance your opportunities for great Sunday dinners because the ducks and geese are low and slow and routinely pass through the shot patterns launched. Now if you don't like that environment to exercise your Parker, then be very careful about shooting at the storm only. You will risk seeding the clouds, thereby causing even greater precipitation and even better shooting for others who know of what I speak. (Beware though, as some of them carry pumps, O/U's and autos, increasing the risk of expanding a simple Parker addiction to yet another level)
Cheers and brrrrrrrr

Jack

Now, back to the deck for my iced yet somehow steaming libation. Here the glass is always half full because you can't get further than that before it becomes a lump of ice

Jack your in luck regarding the support group. I am thinking of opening a Canadian branch of Parkers by O.P.M (other peoples money) where as I am the CFO and CPO (Chief Parker Officer) I'll need someone to head the Canadian office. Were a small grass roots organization and meet in the fall of designated coverts that are kept secret (so know one shows up with a new 28ga) untill the last possible minute.

When the itch strikes a member he contacts his handler who guides him through the withdrawl process usually with the help of some members from Tennesse down around Lynchburg way. Once all the pros and cons have been sorted out and an intelligent and rational decision is reached can the member be released from therapy by his handler.

If this method of treatment proves unsuccesful (as it usually does) then ALL Parkers, Fox's, Ithaca's, W21's and even M70's are sent to the handler until the afflicted member sufficently recovers his good sence. In extreme cases his computer is confiscated and he becomes barred from sites such as Gunbroker, Guns International, Gun Room etc.

This is a proven method and as both safes are full its working.....I'm not in need of a third safe......yet

Probably too late for me. Third safe needed. I suppose I may qualify for VP (Verified Parkerholic)

Woah is me as I stumbeled into a GH 16ga 0 frame at a gun show yesterday. She is serial # 70xxx (I can't remembr the rest) and has good wood, perfect screws, good demensions and 30 inch damascuss bbls. Bore diameter is 662/668 and min wall thickness is 33 thousandths. A barrel lug repair is the only downside.

I ponder the pro's and con's

Pro (only one needed) = Parker
Cons: Concept Causes Confusion when Pro=Parker
