A 20 gauge hammer gun is on my wish list. Lifter or toplever, just as long as I can shoot it.

I picked up a 20g Sterly with 30” tubes. Had help from a member here restocking it and another member here provided Lyman ivory beads that I installed.
Also found a VHE 20g, double trigger, straight grip, 1 frame, 2 7/8” chambers and 32” tubes. Another member here sent the nickel silver stock shield that was missing. Now it’s complete, functioning perfectly and crushes long targets.
I told myself I didn’t need anymore 12g guns, but couldn’t help myself when I was offered a C grade with Bernard barrels.

A magnum 20 is on my long term want list.

Interesting characterization, referring to the Magnum 20 that is. I believe Winchester referred to their 20 gauge 21's with 30-in barrels, 3-in chambers, choked full and full as a magnum 20. Did other American double gun makers refer to any of their 20's as magnums or something similar?

There are a few 20 gauge Super Foxes.

Not a Parker , but looks like I've succumbed to the 28 ga hype. A 28 ga Dickinson 30" st grip will be picked up tomorrow. Has regular + extended choke tubes. Just happen to have 5 cases of old AA Skeet 9's that I bought at $40/case, so probably will be looking for a Mec loader. Hopefully have it at Hausmanns .

Trust me Harold, it's not hype.

Were the 20 gauge guns 2 3/4” or 3” ?

Only two out of 61 total SF 20ga guns are listed as having been made with 3" chambers.
