Hi Gents and thanks for the welcome.
Ive always been a shooter, be it hand guns, rifles, muzzle loaders, Black powder cartridge rifles (BPCR) and lastly Shotguns. Shotguns, which land me on this site
Ive always had a yearning for a antique double barrel with Damascus barrels and hammers. Up until now I hadn't done anything to make that a reality. So, months ago I began a search for a Antique Shotgun. I didn't care who made it as long as it was American made.
I was going back and forth about condition. Do I buy a low priced fixer upper, or one that's reasonably priced and restored , a safe queen was not an option, I want to shoot it. Besides anything over 5k is not in my price range.
So for a months I did a lot of searching online and at gun shows when I could attend. Nothing was "calling"me. A week ago my search ended. I found a nice 10ga Parker grade 3 # 4 frame,restored under 5k online, and its a heavy beast 10lbs +. Its already lettered by this site and I cant wait to have it home! Ill post a few pics once I am in possession. It will be used, not abused.
