Any One Useing a 28 Gauge Parker Hunting

Opening Day · 10-14-2009, 10:56 AM

Jay, you wouldn't be hunting some of the areas that we hit last year would you. I plan to try an make a one day run up there. At my property a friend of mine was staying last weekend and moved a few grouse and six or eight woodcock without a dog and that was just around the cabin... I need to get up there. Eric

No. I have not been back there yet this year. I thought I would save that in case you and I could get together for another hunt. This Saturday is out but I may be able to get there on the 25th. Interested?

If a repro counts.. From today - a little 28 GA... While I usually use a 20 - I'm liking the 28 more and more for the NE woods...

It certainly works for me, John. As much as I would like to own an original Parker 28 I just can't see spending that kind of coin for a gun that I'll use the hell out of in the grouse woods. I really enjoy my 28 ga Repro and use it often, especially early in the season.

BTW: had a chance to handle that 28/30 at Jaquas last week. It is a very nice gun but whomever cut off the SSBP needs to be smacked silly but not as badly as whomever did the crappy job of splicing the SSBP back on.
