This post has me wandering about my GH 16 Damascus O frame now. Traded a Francotte 12 ga sidelock for it years ago at Hausmann''s. Shoot only 3/4 and 7/8 oz loads thru it, and it has taken quite a few pheasant. Used it in Kansas 2 years ago when it was 10 degrees and I was having trouble getting the safety off the 4E Ithaca 16 with heavy gloves on. One of the things I have always liked about Parkers is their large, butter smooth safety.
Looks like I need to have the wall thickness checked on it . Like Shawn, have put a lot of rounds thru it.
