New Guy...Intro

Hello all,
New guy here, an avid collector of old Colts and Winchesters, who enjoys shooting / hunting with old doubles.

I’ve got a few Elsies, Foxes and Lefevers, but just acquired my first Parker; an 1890 vintage, 12 gage, grade 2 on a number 1 frame.

Looking to learn a bit more about these wonderful shotguns.

Very Respectfully

Hi Mike, and Welcome. Not two weeks ago, I gave another member your name and said it was unlikely you were a member, of a smoothbore forum. I think I might have let it slip out that you were THE go to guy for Winchester Lever gun work. I think you're too modest to blow your own horn, so maybe you could post a few pictures of your work, and that will speak well enough.
Once again, Welcome to the Parker Forum ( where a lot of Winchester followers hang out)

Gentlemen

Thank you.

Very Respectfully

Mike
