Excellent choice. I will let the guys in the office and on the factory floor know that there may be some additional requests.

Kenny, I had already started your order form and had some of the form already filled out.

Chris, Just curious...what would be the primary use for this very nicely appointed gun?

I would add a more open 24" 12 but that would blow the budget.
Bill, I'll see what I can do about the additional 24" barrels. Are all of the barrel sets to be Damascus?

Yikes! I'll have to substitute a larger stock medallion to get all those birds in. This ain't Noah's Ark, ya know! Also you'll need to supply a photograph or drawing of the Vizsla since they have not been imported into the United States yet. Can we use the snipe on the small bore brochure that's impersonating a woodcock as a model for your stock medallion? Questions, questions! (BTW, on behalf of Parker Bros., thanks for your order.)

Garry,
Sporting clays mostly, but I have a few of similar configuration that I hunt pheasant with.
