How old was you when you bought your first Parkers ?

[Matt Buckley]

My first Parker was a 1921 VH 16 gauge that had been restored that I purchased when I was 28. 2" of the barrels where cut off so it is now a 26" barreled gun that still has some slight choke in it with a Miller Single Trigger and is probably the gun I have killed the most pheasants with and shoot the best. I can attribute my addiction to double barrels to my good friend Jim Beilke who is a fellow member and introduced me to nice guns. My first over and under was a 1963 Browning Superposed 20 gauge that was given to me by my grandfather when I was 16-17 years old. He purchased the gun new. I can attribute my addiction to hunting and the outdoors to him.
