Default Who got the 3 frame VHE 12ga straight grip?

Scott pointed me at this one yesterday on GI (but I have another gun in the mail ). Gunsinternational says today that it's sold. At that price I am so shocked (tongue planted firmly in cheek).

As a rule striaght grips generally don't have as much drop, however Parker Bros invented the motto every rule is meant to be broken Optical illlusion? Nah it's comforting to know it would have never fit me, thanks I feel better already. Oh well time for my meds

Well - the ad states 2.5" DAH.. Either their "ruler" is broken, or Parker had a broken rule..??

Either way - it looks like about 3.5" - 4" DAH, from the pics..??

Like I said - just sayin'?? And remember - I know nothing...

Ida been on that one had I seen it! I love 3" of drop. That looks like 2-1/2" at the comb not the heel. Pretty nice gun for that price. They're not quite so kind on a few of their other Parkers. I like the 2-bbl C-grade set.... I'm not so sure of their 99% ratings on a few of their guns.

Good to know or not know. Perhaps you need to adopt a new persona here?
