What did you add to your Parker Collection in 2016??

[Bill Murphy]

I did end up with a 12 gauge GHE vent rib Damascus gun. Not a 16, but a nice gun anyhow. The big acquisition is a high condition Whitworth barrelled Purdey hammer pigeon gun. It is a full house round action pigeon gun with 1 1/4 ounce proof, 2 3/4" chambers, side clips, third fastener, and uncut original wood. It is a bar in iron gun, one of the last hammer guns before the present reintroduction. Not a Parker, but a nice find.

This is the 20 ga. DHE I traded my 30" 2 frame CH for. It has clearly seen a lot of use, as evidenced by the minimal remaining checkering on the buttstock, and perhaps less than 50% finish on the barrels, but what I saw when presented with the possible trade, was one of the most beautiful pieces of wood on an early DHE.
When I can clear my bench of some case work, I'll get it apart and send the wood up to Mr. Globe Trotting Dawe.

1) 1934 VHE 12 ga skeet gun

I only bought one Parker this year, MY FIRST!! It is a DHe with a straight stock and damascus barrels. I haven't used it as it went off to Brad Bachelder to have the ejectors fixed, then off to my Remington man, Terry Deem to have the barrels worked on. Still has to make it to Chris Dawe for stock work. Maybe by fall 2017 I might have the opportunity to fire my first shot from it.

[Keavin Nelson]

Well, a few
- my first D, which I shared earlier this year with a post and photos
- and a 16ga VH w/ 30" F&F barrels needing some stock attention,

But to Ed's snowblower, I did get my wife a new rototiller for our 40th anniversary, really
