Do you hunt with your Parker/Parkers?

[Alton Anker]

I hunt with a Parker
I hunt wild Chukar with my Parker's and yes we have taken some bad falls you understand Chukar hunting in my mind is equal to sheep hunting in BC or Alaska and the bumps and bruise are all part of the adventure take your Parker and enjoy it or hang it on the wall and look at it I think I know what Mr. Parker would say to do
I love it when I hear of someone hunting wild birds with just two shots enjoy

I have been lucky to pick up several the last few years. I shoot them all. Have a very pretty GHE 20 ga. that can't find the targets. An older Damascus G H 16ga. only has to be pointed down range to do its job. There is a CH 12ga. that broke a lot of trap for a previous owner that wont do my bidding. There is an old PH 12ga. with open bores in frosted condition that does a very good job with the junk you are forced to throw at waterfowl. The fun is in the doing. The Parkers will all last much longer than I will.

I have a CHE 20 Gauge that I find myself worrying about when afield so it only sees one day a year any more but other than that I hunt them all regularly ! It doesn't matter which of my Parker's are in hand ,I am always careful with it but I am always careful with my Browning BSS 20 and my Model 70's in Deer Season ! Buy the best you can afford ,take care of her and enjoy using it ,that's the best suggestion I could give !

I shoot them all. But, if concern of over use is a possibility, get two!

I hunt with all of my guns. I was carrying a Fox 20ga this week in the mountains when I slipped and slid down the hill. I could have easily injured myself trying to protect the gun. When I came to a stop I sort of thought to myself, "Dummy, don't worry about the gun." Then a thought flashed about not carrying certain guns in the mountains, at which point I immediately discounted that by reminding myself that the gun wasn't the reason I fell, and that the very last thing I would want is to be found dead in the mountains next to an ugly gun.

I'm with Mark and Rich on this. I hunt with all my guns, some more than others. I must admit I waited a long time to buy a Parker DH 28 gauge and the first 20 minutes I carried it I was overly cautious. Once the dogs started pointing I became more comfortable carrying it. About 3 years ago I did what Mark has done, insure them and use them.

i hunt with all my parkers espcially the 8 ga s and 10 s...i use them in the rain cold or what ever but i look after them best as i can after hunting...all my guns are shooter grade guns ....charlie

[Harold Pickens]

Yup, I hunt with them all. Some a lot more than others, and some only under fair weather conditions. I try to carry each gun hunting and take game with each one every year. I might shoot better if I stuck with just one or two guns, but what the heck kind of fun would that be.

When asked if I was really going to hunt with that gun I replied , " I paid for it and I darn sure ain't saving it for the next guy." Yes, I hunt with them all except the trap guns.

Last fall while Grouse hunting I took a bad fall. My glasses flew off, my hearing aids popped out and I saw stars. I was carrying a CHE Damascus 20 one of only 8 built with 26 inch barrels. I ended up with a lump on my head and forearm but the gun made it without a scratch.
