Russ;
Why don't you post some pics of you BSS 20? I've got a couple of them and feel they are a quality gun at a great price for what you get. Nice grouse.

It's nice to get out on a winter day and bird hunt. Our regular season has closed but the perserves are open and on a fresh snow tracking Mr. Pheasant is a lot of fun.

Went bunny hunting yesterday, no Parker involved just some Beagles and a Ruger 10/22.

I looked but couldn't find any close ups so I just ran out and took a couple real quick ,so ,they are not the best ! I agree ,on the BSS ,I bought mine new around 1980 and just fell in Love with it as soon as I started shooting it , I should knock on wood but I carried no other gun for the better side of 25 years and it has been trouble free ! I have a small chip at the toe of the stock where one of my old Hunting Dogs ,put his front poaws up on my gun cleaning bench and knocked it to the floor and it just took out a small chip ! I have another NOS Butt Plate but never put it on yet !

For a modern SXS the BSS is a hard one to beat.

Thanks Russ, that's a knockout piece of wood on it. I waterfowl hunted with mine after they mandated steel shot for the better part of 20yrs. and also have never had a problem with it. Mine is also a straight stock with a beavertail and I truly love shooting it. It's my foul weather gun. The Parkers and Foxes only come out on nice days.

Hi Kenny ,WE are probably fairly close I have never had a reason to head to New Castle ,but it shouldn't be more than 100 Miles to your shop one way ,I am about 60 Miles East of Pittsburgh ,Now for the " SECRET GROUSE SPOT " ,I didn't know any one actually devulged that type of information ,but it could get discussed when we are making a deal on one of those Beautiful Parker Repros you have !
