Default A great moment- a fine Parker and a grand game bird

Takes me back, although the older PH 12 I was using was a bit of a "beater" but it had wide open chokes- as someone had shortened the 30" barrels to 28"- also made it a $300 gun when I bought it 25 years ago- when I was faster afoot, a few pounds lighter, and had a GSP that was like a fireplug on point. But i was using AA 12 reloads- Montoya locked up- mid-Nov just before our MI gun deer season- a huge pat- tail fan like a B-29 went right up and away, a fairly straight-away shot, I covered the bird the the muzzles and touched the front trigger- Click- bad primer, never did get off the second shot-- C'est La Vie I guess-Thanks for sharing with us, will you re-open the grouse hunting after Thanksgiving, depending on weather??
