Default Thanks, Josh L.!
First shot fired with my new-from-Josh BHE 20. Took three Bobs, one over my limit (for which I'll make amends on another hunt), with three right barrel shots. Thanks, Josh.

Very nice Parker indeed. It didn't happen to ship to Utah originally did it?

Wow ! I’ve gotten three from the Lowensteiner Collection and my three put together wouldn’t add up to that little 20

I think I remember that gun Josh posted it on the forum and it was sold immediately. Beautiful gun congratulations!

Thanks for the nice comments. This gun is part of a unique niche in my collection that I hope to write a Parker Pages article about. As for Reggie's "clairvoyance"...

Here's a photo Elaine took on our hunt. If you look closely, you can see the puff of feathers and the dead-in-the-air bird from one of the singles I took. Aspen had a great day, as did I.

Nothing quite like a feather pillow floating on the breeze.
