Default Looking for a shooter

for my friend, Chuck, from Las Vegas. (PGCA member, does not do computers)
He wants a 12 gauge ejector gun, 30" BBLs, with good metal. Wood is unimportant, as he will restock it. (unless it comes with good dimensions, and decent wood) No skeleton steel butt plates, as this gun will get a pad.
V Grade is okay, probably up to a D.
Through years of hunting, and shooting all kinds of guns, Chuck has decided a Parker ejector gun will make the best all around go-to gun for his hunting needs. I can't argue with that!
He has 3 Parkers, but nothing with ejectors.
BTW, thanks to Robin, on the Underlifter. Chuck is very happy with this gun, and he and the 'Lifter did a great job on doves at my place this year.

Todd tell Chuck,
If he wants to meet me at one of the ranges out here we can have a PGCA
local chapter meeting. All 2 of us.

I could arrange that meeting. Chuck is a shooter, and a hunter, and salt of the earth.
He likes Parkers, and good whisky.

I am glad to hear that Chuck likes the underlifter. It has good dimensions and it sounds like it shoots well for him. That's good to hear.

It's a great gun, and Chuck is very happy with it. He shoots it very well!
Next step is to find him a nice ejector gun for those pesky desert quail.
I have hunted with Chuck for close to 30 years, almost exclusively with SxS guns, and have both come pretty much full circle back to Parkers.

Update: I located a gun for Chuck. A VHE, 30" bbls, #2 frame, very good dimensions, and already fitted with a pad. Chokes are mod/full, bores are mint. Tight, on face, and bbls ring like a bell. Well used, but honest.
Should make a great field gun.

The quail will be in big trouble around here in a few days!
Here's some pics:
