Default AHE and BHE are done and ready for action.

In 2013 I was in the right place at the right time when I ran into a gentleman who had the below AHE and BHE. He was loosing interest in Parker's and I caught him on the day he was motivated to sell. The AHE has a hickory rod and was broke around the wrist and the wood was bretty beat up. The BHE was well worn and smelled like a ashtray as one of the previous owners must have been a chain smoker. It started life as non safety 2 barrel damascus set and was returned for the current set of 32" barrels all in the letter. The metal on each gun was borderline leave as is or restore, some will criticise the restoration path but I am happy with the end results. I never though I would be lucky enough to own Parker's such as these.

I want to thank Brad Bachelder for bringing these guns back to their glory and specifically the special care it took to save the AHE stock. Say hello to Brad pictured for those of you that have not met him. He and his wife Lori are fantastic and the trip to Grand rapids was worth it.......Parker's, conversation, dinner, drinks.......a wonderful combination.
