So what did you add to Your Parker collection in 2022? - Page 7

James Whittington · 12-26-2022, 06:56 PM

No Parkers added this year but I did add a trio of Lefevers, a DS 20, FE 16, and CE 12. The
DS has 28 inch barrels and is choked .006 & .012, the FE has 26 inch barrels and is choked .010 & .018, and the CE has 30 inch barrels choked .005 & .024.

I can't wait to see pics of it after it's finished, Jay. if you like it as much as I do mine (1 frame) you will be one happy dude. They are dove guns par excellence.

Those Lefevers are extremely nice, James!

Thank you, It makes a really nice Clays gun and is one of my favorites. My wife has taken a liking to the DS 20 gauge at 6lbs 1oz it is an easy carry for her and turns out she is deadly with it ! Well I can't get the picture turned...but you get the idea

Here ya go James. Gotta keep you in good graces with the wife

James I like your Lefevers as well. The more I look at Lefevers the more I like them. I have 2 and they are nice, but lower grades.

In 2023, I am going make finding a higher grade damascus gun a priority...they are just too good looking!

Gerald McPherson · 12-31-2022, 12:13 PM

Nothing. Sold them all. I think I am cured.

Still only added one to the Parker collection in 2022 the Grade 1 TLH 12ga 30 with Lam barrels. Made some room from sales so I hope 2023 will bring some new treasurers my way. Another nice early 12 ga AH would be nice. Happy new years all!

47314 Grade 3 4 frame 10 gauge.

For 2023 I’d like a VHE 20 26” skeet in skeet out , single trigger , straight grip , checkered butt and fat forend that letters that way , preferably in good original condition . But at this point in my life I can deal with recolored reblued refinished as long as it’s done well . The rub is going to be to find one I like for a price I’m willing to accept
