The Julia gun that seemed to go above the estimates with no trouble was the field used VHE .410 Skeet. $32,000, twice what the Turnbull .410 sold for. Maybe we should take our Parkers hunting more often.

Default Turnbull

It seems a well used, all original, Parker will out sell a Turnbull by quite a bit
all day long.

David, (with a tiny edit) I agree completely.

It's got a hell of a nice piece of wood on it, and the prettiest dainty little straight grip you ever saw. Of course you go much further forward and it ain't so good. Though obviously it kills rails, or did when I still shot it.

Is that a rail skiff? How about a full view photo Destry. I looks like it may be a handful for the pole person. How long are the barrels on that 12 gauge railbird gun?

Bill,

Nah, that's a Carolina Skiff, that's what they use down around Wachapreague for rails. Those are the 28 inch barrels on that gun, the ones that are apparently paper thin. It's got 26 inch on it now, though I've not had a chance to try them out.

Here's a pic of Milton Stranton my pusher hard at work:

Default GHE Delgreco

A few years back I perchased a delgreco GHE-12 Its been restocked with D quality wood and fully refinished. It was done in 2003-4 I also received all the recepts for the work that totaled back then just short of 4K. I perchased that gun from Safari outfitters for 4050.00 shiped. The very first round of five stand the stock became loose and required my attention with some quality scew drivers....all better now. The gun has mordern dementions and is very nice...would rather it was original worn finish....)-:
