Hard times hit me like the wave in the movie "The Perfect Storm". I sold off a lot of guns, but a couple that really hurt was my 1935 Parker trap gun that was was up-graded to an A-1 Special by Runge/Delgreco, and a sweet little Ithaca NID .410 upgraded and restored by George Flaim (sp) and Doug Turnbull.
The A-1 was bought by a gentleman from the PGCA, who most graciously offered it back to me when it came time to sell it. Unfortunately I could not afford it.
If/when I can ever mount a financial come-back, I would love to track that Parker down again.
BTW the trap gun was a 32" Vent Rib, single trigger, BTFE gun. I shot a few pigeon shoots with, back in the day, with pretty good effect!
