Thanks for sharing that video. It’s always fascinating to me that people are so surprised that these old SBT’s shoulder so well. I’m “told” all the time how my Parkers shoot too flat for a “real” trap gun and how I really should be shooting a modern gun if I want to be truly competitive. I suppose, but any targets I miss aren’t the guns fault. And according to the pattern board, my Parker SBT shoots 90/10 dead center. Sounds like a real trap gun to me.

Heck when I had the unsingle trap barrel on the K-32 it only shot 70/30 . But the unsingle barrel the trap doubles barrel and the skeet barrel all patterned 70/30 . I’m still a firm believer in one stock and change the barrels !

John, I had a neighbor who has since passed. He thought he was a good trap shooter and spent many thousands of dollars on guns and equipment. Well, I would sometimes go and shoot when he was practicing and I could keep up using my Old Man's Win.model 24 16ga.He would get pissed and blame the equipment or some other excuse. He passed suddenly from a heart attack and shortly thereafter, his high end special order trap gun from Europe arrived. He paid 35k for it and it sat for years. Wife sold it for a few hundred dollars at a yard sale when she was moving. Stupid is as stupid does I guess

The serial number dates it to 1934, it shows that records are available. It would be fun to find out if it was ordered by him or Hercules Powder Company.

Sorry, 1934 is many years past the end of the order books. A 1934 PGCA letter would not normally show any information on the original buyer of the gun.

I had a Skeet gun from 1936 and the factory letter had the owners name.

I used the word normally, which is correct. For forty bucks, give it a shot.
