For me anyway.... Not that any Parker is ever truly ugly, but this one pushes that envelope.... Never a fan of inlays in the wood of a gun.... Except maybe the small Ebony inlays at front of the forend sort of thing.

To each their own, as it should be.

The more I look at her, the more I like her. Alas, I'm afraid an early bird may have already gotten this worm.

You guys are missing the point. Why would anyone want John Warner’s shotgun? He was an absolutely horrible US Senator for Virginia. As a former Virginia guy, I still gag a little when I hear his name. Sorry, I got sidetracked. His gun is also butt ugly. On another note, he did keep a framed picture in his office of Liz Taylor. I thought that was endearing.

Good Lord! Who on Gods green earth would ever buy such a gun?

Well it sold. And if this gun ever showed up at the People's Choice Award, I'd vote for it multiple times. Fortunately there's no voter ID requirement for the PCA.

It’s definitely an Upland Game Gun. I think those inlays are actually camouflage. This ugly duck was probably a factory prototype for a turkey gun, lol.

If that"thing" ever shows up at the PC Awards and it will not during my tenure as Chair you can vote all you want John. I'm prolly gonna lie, I mean improvise when I reveal the voting tabulations.

It appears he is still living, the new owner may be able to ask questions.

Looks to me as if it could provide plenty of employment for Brian.
