I continued to fiegn some interest, I asked if it was a Belgian Browning and he said with much pride "no it's first year production in Japan" . I was running out of ideas of how to make him feel good about his gun. I wasn't sure what to say next so I asked him if there was something special about it and why it had all the gold birds on the receiver. I had my ear phones on and somebody was shooting so it was hard to hear but I think John said it was because it was gift for graduating from Grade 6. Congrats on finishing grammar school John!

wow, he told me it was parkers 1st O/U SN 1#he "found it" at a yard sale. it did shoot like a parker even with him behind it no john you shot VERY well sunday hope to see you wed. scott

Dave and Danny

don't shop at the same Marshalls it's Goodwill...same place John got that shotgun. Perhaps Dean can fix him up something from China

I shop the Goodwill stores- also the second hand high end men's clothing stores for the "Yuppie" stuff at 60% off- for the few funerals and bar mitzvahs I get to attend. Have never bought a new rifle or shotgun or truck in my life either- About ten years ago I read the book "The Millionaire next Door" which reinforced my buying habits greatly- words of wisdom--

Although my late Grandfather always drove Packards, and my Dad drove Buicks- they drove them for years before they traded- well kept up too- Granddad always said "Don't let your choice of a car become a vehicle for your vanity- it's just a ride is all it is, Son"!! He was right too!

Did notice the "Team Suponski" did managed to wear different headgear--

Dear Rich, Dave, Pete, Scott and Dean,

Being the quiet, shy and reserved person that I am, I thought long and hard about a reply defending both my honor and the honor of the craftsmen who forged my browning shooting stick from wood, steel and gold crayon. However, I find myself at a loss...

I will note, however, that I am happy I didn't bring one of my highly collectible Remington 870s along, as all of you would have been clamoring to shoot that, as you did with my Browning.

Carry on - and please let me know if any of you gentlemen have any difficulty in posting to the PGCA forum, OK?

John you still have those 870's on loan from the Kittery Trading Post?

[John D.]

Nope - I traded my small bore Parker collection for two of the prettiest 870s you've ever seen, and returned the other 870s I had out on loan. Hang on - I'll attach a picture for you (I might put the attached picture up on the opening page of this site, but I haven't decided yet?)

Anyway - I know I got the better part of that deal....

Now there's a skeet gun!!!!

Just a question John:

"I thought long and hard about a reply defending both my honor "

Did I miss something ("my honor ") you have that?

Sorry just could not resist........
