A few more.....

It is not currently wearing the original trigger guard, one of the previous owners had the complete trigger guard washed in gold, very gaudy in my opinion, original letter does not support it being gold washed, so that is being corrected

It is very nice. I like a vent rib long barrel 20 a lot! In fact I let one slip away from me, but thankfully I have a backup.

Could you lay your ear to the ground and figure out where that 3E landed

Maybe it landed in Tennessee and Reggie will fess up and show us some pictures

I hope Reggie has it. I could find some closure with that at least.

I wish Reggie had it too! I assume it was a 32" gun?

Yes it was. Appeared on GI and I missed it by mere minutes 😭. Priced way way under value IMO.

Default A Slow Afternoon/evening

It is slow day, times like this make time for thoughts to wonder

This particular Parker was sent to Missoula MT. What game was harvested, grouse, quail, fox, or perhaps even big game???? Was it used to harvest game out of necessity for filling the pot or frying pan...

Or perhaps ordered as a gift for a daughter or special wife....

Original or restored by Brad?
