Dean IF you won it you would just sell it anyway so hopefully the winner will put some rounds through it shooting it at Grouse.

One of CSM'S Fox 28's would make a nice gun also. I saw one at Hausmanns last year I wish I had bought but the VHE skeet works just fine. The Repo's are nice light guns and are an excellent buy for the money.

Ouch!!

Not a 28 ga. my friend - that thing would look like a 90 year old gun in pretty short order. You know how I love to shoot and carry a twenty-eight.

What's this about "finding the perfect 28"? 28s are best when accumulated in quantity. Don't search for perfection, search for just one more. I found my "just one more 28" last weekend.

There is one on the Cabelas Gun Room site for around $9900.
Here's a Miller single trigger gun, but it has 30" vent rib barrels.

Sorry I don't know how to post a picture; I've pushed about every button I can think of...

Russ, my latest 28 is not a Parker. It is a nice little Pedro Arrizabalaga, 50 years old and appears unfired. Not a "Best Gun", as many Arrizabalagas are, but extremely well fitted and stocked, border engraved only, vivid case color, 5 3/4 pounds. Correctly measured bores and chokes are .545, .020 in the right, and .039 in the left. And you thought full choke Repros were heavily constricted! In my experience, full choked Parker Brothers 28s measure .020 of choke. I don't remember what full choked Repro 28s are choked, but they are tighter than original Parkers.

Bill ; Sounds like a nice carrying gun ! Congrats. Have you given it a good go yet ?? I love the little 28 Ga. doubles ,not too concerned who the maker is as long as it feels nice in the hands and not too bulky for a small bore gun ,of course ,at least in my mind nothing beats a 28 Ga. Parker ! I have never had much use for Autoloader guns but I picked up a little 1148 in 28 Ga. at a local show and just couldn't pass it up ,one of the nicest carrying guns I have ever owned ! I have to say ,If the 28 Repros are choked tighter than an early 16 Ga.Trojan I once owned ,the shot would have to " Dribble " out of the bores ,those Full Choke Parkers are really TIGHT !
