Oh yeah! That is a classic for sure. Not the Bob Allen DU pattern but still a terrific coat. I'm very envious!

HaHa! Never been a camo fan but that is pretty neat. I could see myself wearing that. Thanks David!

Here's some of the catalog pages that show the Bob Allen products:









I swear I used to have one of those neckties but for the life of me I can't find it!

There's even more in the catalog, nearly ever product they made was available in this pattern. I need one of the XL and XXL gun cases badly, and any of the clothes in XXL of course, plus some of the duffle bags, and and and.......

Anybody got any of this stuff in the closet?

David,

Bob Allen dropped it all from the line in the late 80's I'm sorry to say.

I've got one XL guncase, the Gunners Bag, a rain parka, the executive attache, and a choke tube case in my little collection so far.

Where did that necktie ever get to......

I found my rain parka on eBay, was surprised what I had to give for it but was glad to get it anyway. I've seen a few other jackets and shirts on there but nothing in the magic XXL.

Did a posting on a waterfowl forum about looking for the stuff and had one response. Guy said he had the XL and XXL gun cases, would just send them to me and I could give him whatever I thought they were worth. Gave him my address, waited awhile, emailed again, waited again, no response and no cases so far in about 6 months. To say I was disappointed would put it mildly......

Do you think there is an outside chance that ANY of us Parker shooters might be considered "Old School?" ...Hmmmmm

Darn right Steve and proud of it. Next year I want to hunt out of a spring wagon with my 81 lifter.
