"His technically advanced weapon - A powerful double barrel shotgun capable of firing wide range blasts of pellets vs the single bullet used in the rifle"

I think this guy still writes for the media in describing AR style rifles. :-)

The man who donated this painting to the museum, owned one of the nicest Parkers I have ever handled- a smoking mint CHE 20ga 2 barrel set with original hang tags and case. Late Remington gun that was about as close to mint as one could hope for. He had good taste in guns and art.

The Probasco family were bankers. They started a bank in Chattanooga, American National Bank, that was eventually acquired by SunTrust Bank. I am shocked his Parker 20 wasn't a AAHE!
