It is too bad Parker did not make a dedicated magnum gun like the HE Super Fox or LC Smith Long Range. I understand they had some souped up 12's and 10's, but it is too bad they did not have a dedicated grade

Parker Bros. was not a fan of magnum cartridges or heavy loads, they were right but Americans certainly bought into bigger is better. It took me a long time to discover lighter is stunningly effective.
