Remingtons AAHE 28ga.

Anyone have one of these? How do they compair with originals? How do they compair with the A1 special reproductions? I have only veiwed pictures of it, the bird engraving looks kinda genaric...not like guns from the past. Im sure it would be better gun in hand to make proper judgements. A rather hi end gun at 50K.....Its hard to grasp it being that valuable? Its not likely I will ever own one!.....What it does is make the repro's quality and price tags look so mutch better and they are still afforable to most Parker types. Will Remington/CSM make lower affordable grades?...maybe.... DHE at 12-15K???
Thanks all Kenny Graft SXS ohio...(-:

Kenny, in my opinion, having held and beheld one and snapped it to my shoulder and swung it on an imaginary grouse, it is in all respects, except date of manufacture, an original Parker. The engraving is spectacular although it doesn't appear so in any photo I've seen... but up close it is all that it should be, as is the quality of the wood and the checkering. Yup, I'd sure like to have one.

I concur with Dean; if you put a piece of tape over the s/n, it would be difficult to differentiate the "new ' AAHE from a 240,000 gun. Neither is like a 100,000 AAH

Best, Austin

Hmmm... maybe I'm missing something but all I saw was a CSMC AAHE Parker but not the 1988 Remington reintroduction Parker.

Bill Murphy · 08-19-2010, 08:27 AM

The CSMC 28 is the gun we are discussing. The 1988 gun is a 20 gauge AHE. I'll have to look it up in the Julia catalog.

Jeez... how did I go and confuse myself like that??

I guess I had read something recently about the '88....

....comes with age I guess.
