Mills - Is your pair one of the matched sets with the weighted forearm caps?

Dean, I imagine that it refers to using only plastic for feeding purpose as some older paper shells don’t feed and extract properly causing a malfunction

In 1969, I was buying matched pairs of small gauge 1100s from Bill Jaqua for $298.00 shipped. I would resell them for $325.00 or $350.00 and thought I was doing well.

Jaqua's has what appears to be a nice NH 10 ga theyve had forever now it seems I have been looking at. Ive got a couple Parkers im looking at im trying to convince myself not to buy . Really just trying to find what 10 gauges I may like in the $2500-4000 range .

So the first quarter of 2021 is already history. I did buy a VH 12/30 for a rainy weather hunting gun and a Fox AE 20/26 from a family breaking up grandpa's estate which may be returned to the stream of commerce.
Sold a Parker Grade 2 TLH 10/30, Fox AE 12ga 28", 2 Super Foxes, Parker DH 20ga 26, and a Parker D 10/36.
I have one gun on my radar in a upcoming auction. Still trying to keep my overall number to 25 but I decided 30 is a more realistic number
How about you? What changes have you made????

I want something twisty in the barrel department I think. Never owned a Damascus or twist barrel gun.

My wish list has been reduced to three guns. A straight stock 30” graded Parker or Fox 20, a 30” 28 gauge Parker straight stock and 32” Parker 28. I would even consider a pistol grip on that one! I did sell a 20/32” so I need to fill that spot with one of the 3 mentioned. I have decided that the 30” is the ultimate barrel length.
