SSBP of course.

I would add a more open 24" 12 but that would blow the budget.

Bill, I'll see what I can do about the additional 24" barrels. Are all of the barrel sets to be Damascus?

DH, 00 frame, three dog with a vizsla on the bottom, checked triggers, straight stock, 2 1/2” DAH, 14 7/8” LOP, manual safety, best available steel barrels in a 4 barrel set. 28 with 32” IM/F, 28 26”CYL/IC, 410 30” F/F, 410 27” sk1/sk2, oh yeah, splinter, splinter, semi beaver, semi beaver......with a snipe, a bobwhite and a dove engraved in the stock medalion.

Yikes! I'll have to substitute a larger stock medallion to get all those birds in. This ain't Noah's Ark, ya know! Also you'll need to supply a photograph or drawing of the Vizsla since they have not been imported into the United States yet. Can we use the snipe on the small bore brochure that's impersonating a woodcock as a model for your stock medallion? Questions, questions! (BTW, on behalf of Parker Bros., thanks for your order.)

Garry,
Sporting clays mostly, but I have a few of similar configuration that I hunt pheasant with.

Well, thank you for the reminder that this is a 1 gun deal! I apologize for the apparent greed of my original order.

I would like to revise my order to an 0 frame top lever 20, in B configuration, with 30” Bernard barrels, choked IC and Mod. Please use the same dimensions as the previous gun, but would like a full ball grip with MWR engraved on the grip medallion. I would prefer an ivory front bead and ivory mid bead. I would like the triggers checked, and set as far apart from each other as is practical. Please fit the gun with a “fishtail” top lever. I would like the gun to be as close to 6 lbs as possible.

Thwnk you for your patience

Dear Mr. Ray:

We have made the revisions to your order as requested. After consulting with our shop foremen, they have reported that they can indeed produce the gun you have specified at the desired weight, however, we strongly recommend loads of no more than 3/4 oz., and emphatically do not recommend using “Texas Loads” that are in vogue at present.

Faithfully,

Parker Bros.

Dear Mr. Gordon,

Thank you for the accomodation. My local ammunition purveyor tells me that 3/4 oz loads can be difficult to obtain. Please make the gun beefy enough to handle standard 7/8 oz field loads. Should the maker determine that the gun should weigh slightly more, then that will be okay with me. I am not aware of any 20 gauge “Texas” loads as you mention. Here in Texas, we use smallbore guns for doves, quail and snipe, and Big guns for deer turkey and waterfowl. I do hear that there is a fad out west of shooting 20 gauge guns at waterfowl using very long, heavy load shells. Down here in the Lone Star State we would call that “bringing a knife to a gunfight”! I sure am anxious to see this gun with those fancy Bernard barrels!

Thanks again pardner for working with me!
