About a year ago I seem to remember a 20ga hammer gun selling at one of Julia's auctions. Does anyone remember what it was; was it a lifter or top action and what grade?

Jim Kubaka bought a 20ga lifter from the Jim Parker collection at auction but it was longer than a year ago.

Right... Jim Kucaba willed that gun to his best friend, Tom Latham and Tom sent it to me in the hope that it could be entered in the People's Choice at the Annual Meeting along with more than a dozen other twenties. It arrived at my house after I left for the AM but he told me to keep it and bring it to any PGCA events I was going to attend. Some folks here in the Northeast got to see it while I had it. It was a VERY unusual gun and it had some very unusual features that defied its grade. Certainly a unique Parker.

It was a bit more than a year ago, and was a grade 3, bought by a member. I believe it was at the 2013 Annual Meeting

I can't say for sure, Robin. I think it was a lifter, but lately, my mind is elsewhere. Maybe the owner will chime in.
Russ, I know I'll never have one, but I have a few 0 framed 16s, and I can pretend. One is coming back from Brad B. today, and I'm like a kid on Christmas morning.

I know where five of them are, maybe six.. I am pretty sure the most recent one sold at Julia was a lifter.grade three. The is also a stunning A grade, dollar grade, underlever that was first seen in Sanford bout five years ago.
