I believe that gun hung in Shenandoah Guns in Berryville, Virginia many years ago. I don't remember whether it was for sale. Ben Toxvard and I never discussed that gun much, but I held it at least once. I was more interested in the A.P. Curtis try gun that also hung there for many years that was definitely not for sale, until it was.

Wow! What’s the value of something like that? How about close up photographs of the frame? Is a letter available for it and when was it manufactured?

I detest pads but that one would certainly give me pause if choked right! Would love to point those barrels at a Northern Mi turkey!

I know Parkers are know to balance exceptionally well on the hinge pin. Wondered how this extraordinary long gun balances? Crazy cool.

Never shot anything with 40” barrels but I have shot a friends 38” 8 gauge a couple times and it handled and balanced very well or so I thought !
