Charlie I like that 12 gauge 26" bbl gun. The lighter the better.
Rich your upgrade is a work of art. Have you ever taken it afield? Harold you have an awesome collection. |

Sure, but which one?
He had DHE 20's, 28's and larger gauges for waterfowl too and he is rumored to have had a high grade (AHE or AAHE) .410 which he sold to help finance college educations of his children. I'd like to have his 28 gauge DHE. |

I would imagine that his favorite grouse and woodcock gun was a 16 as was my grandfather's in the coverts of southern New Hampshire. If I'm incorrect, I would still go with a sixteen.

Deep relief engraving like this? Not the best pic but it's one I have.
Mike I hunt with it every fall. I took it to GA in January for Quail.

That's great Rich. I admire people who shoot their high grade guns.

IMHO just because it's a high grade gun doesn't mean it can't be used as Parker (or any other mfg) intended if you exercise care.
Whats the point of having a 69 Camero Z28 or a Boss Mustang if you can't take it out for a spin.

If i ever see a grouse, I will be shooting my 12 ga DH 28 in. Damascus barreled 1 frame ,choked .005 in left barrel and .011 right barrel at 6 lbs 8 oz's. It's hell on phez ! A 12 ga. is a small bore to me
