Garry I do believe that is the finest Parker I have ever had the pleasure of owning. Beautiful gun and as you stated, ohhhhhhhhh the wood! It is much more suited to your passion and looks much better on you than it ever did me.
Enjoy it.

Thanks, Randy (and Reggie!), I'm so glad that the barrels weren't two inches longer.

Randy, Not 20 minutes ago, I said nearly the same thing to another member. Not the owning part, regrettably, but having seen. Now I have to go downstairs and apologize to my BHE20.

All the best,

I hope we see you there, Brett. The meeting and the Southern are worth the trip.

I'd like to see a couple still frames of the video of Rill on the chase amid the gentleman stumbling around. Might have to file a FOI request...

Beautiful artwork by the way.

The images of “the chase” will appear in the dictionary as illustration for the word: undignified.

We needed Fish to help.
