Dean, I named it the "boathouse gun" because due to it condition when I received it, it looked like it had been kept in a boathouse from the time it was sold by Parker in 1881 until I received it...it was rough! I still have to do the metal refinishing but I think it will turn out OK. I'll try to find you at the Southern. I've shot for Parker for the last 2 years; however, I may go over to the dark side this year as I have a Smith that I have done some work on that I may want to try. Jim

Jim, I met you at last year's Southern and I'm sure we'll meet up again this year.... you're a hard guy to miss.

outhouse gun
I have had a few reloads that made some of my guns sound like "outhouse guns". Does that count?

I have a old wall hanger Parker that came into the family by way of a poker game.

About a year ago, I posted pix of an AHE 10 gauge whose one-family history is bit hazy, but there is a hint that it was won in a card game.
I know of a bunch of Au Sable, MI riverfront, (something over 10 miles) which was lost over a period of years. Mr. Kellogg wasn't much of a poker player, apparently. |
