Default The day’s news acquisitions !

It was a pretty decent day today . A VH 20 gauge 0 frame 32” that I’ve kinda been after for two years finally made it into my accumulation . But the surprise of the day was a quite nice circa 1918 DH 10 gauge 3 frame 32” gun . I had four DH 10’s until a few months ago and was down to one with a replacement stock . This new one seems to fit a bit better .

Twenty gauge Parkers with 32" barrels are "to die for". I wouldn't take the mint for mine, if I couldn't get my hands on another as nice.

That 32" 20 gauge would be a lot of fun in the dove field. Actually, they both would be.

That 20 will most likely be at one or more tower shoots in December . If I could choose I’d prefer it was a DHE but beggars can’t be choosers .

The DH intrested me because the dimensions are a bit better than the beater DH I have at the moment . If can get up in the 90% range with this DH it was a good idea otherwise I just added a nice gun
