I am a new member from CT. I just recently have been able to take a breather for the first time in 5 years to start relaxing and enjoying some "hobby" time. I have a 1919 PHE, 20g with 32" barrels (Parker Steel). This Parker has been in my family since day 1. It was purchased for my grandfather on his 14th birthday as a gift to cheer him up after his mothers passing. It was much loved by him as him go-to gun and it shows the wear. I am waiting for my research letter...

Welcome Andrew - we have a number of members in Connecticut - you're in good company.

What a wonderful Parker PHE 20 gauge! 32-inch barrels - how nice is that!!!

You should consider joining us for the day at Addieville East Farm in Mapleville RI foe sporting clays and maybe 5-stand after lunch.

Pretty sad for the likes of him in this nasty storm.

Yes i agree. They are very abundant at this site. they are using the brush piles we are creating to weather the storms. Once the sun came out today, they were out everywhere feeding.
