I'll try to accommodate that request. This gun was made in 1929 and the stock book is missing so I was not able to buy a research letter on it but everything but the pad is original - so sayeth some long-time Parker experts.

Dean,
Didn't that gun cost you one book of raffle tickets?

Dean:

The story goes something like this:

While I was in Las Vegas several year ago , at some point I was looking for a PGCA raffle gun, I asked Frank to look for a gun with a reasonable price . Frank came to me with a list of guns that he thought would fit the bill. One of the guns was the CHE. I went over to see Mike Methe and borrowed a hand full of cash. I went to the dealer that had the CHE and offered him a cash deal of considerably less than he was asking----he took the deal.

The gun needed a very little TLC and I gave the gun to Doug Turnbull, he did his magic touch.

Dean upon winning the gun came to Vermont to pick up his winnings along with his wife Kathy-------the first time I met them.

I am glad that Dean enjoyed the gun for a short time.

Allan

Fantastic Parker and a great story. I own her "big sister" who sports 32" barrels. I purchased mine at Pintail Pt from a fellow PGCA member. I have never shot her as she is almost unfired, and I suck at trap.I purchased her for her beauty and condition.
If you need any pictures of her "sister" let me know.
