Default 20ga Gun Display for the PGCA's 20th Anniversary!

If you weren't able to attend the 2013 PGCA Annual Meeting and Banquet in Rhode Island this year, you missed out on an exceptional display of 20 gauge guns. The members in attendance were able to vote on their favorite, and now you can too! Here are photos of all 9 guns. Sorry I don't have details on all of the guns, maybe someone else can help to fill in the gaps. Enjoy!

Gun #1 - 20ga Parker A1 Special

























Gun #2 - R. F. CROSS'S WIDGEON DUCK CLUB 20 GAUGE 3" PARKER DHE WITH 32" BARRELS













Gun #3















Gun #4 - According to The Parker Story, only two twenty gauge lifters were made with laminated steel barrels in Grade 3. This is the 28" gun.















Gun #5 - 20ga GH on a #2 Frame with 32" Barrels and 3" Chambers. Re-stocked by Craig Libhart.















Gun #6 - Grade 2, 20ga Lifter with Factory 29" Laminated Steel Barrels on an "O" Frame. Manufactured in 1879 and still in original condition today. This gun is 1 of 15 in all grades, and the only one with 29" barrels.
