Thanks for the nice comments. This gun is part of a unique niche in my collection that I hope to write a Parker Pages article about. As for Reggie's "clairvoyance"...
Here's a photo Elaine took on our hunt. If you look closely, you can see the puff of feathers and the dead-in-the-air bird from one of the singles I took. Aspen had a great day, as did I.
