Default Parker Wish List/Goals for 2025?? How about You??

I would like to find a couple of Parker catalogs to fill in my collection in 2025. I have nothing on my 2025 wish list but am always looking to upgrade my Parker collection. Maybe a AAHE 12ga #2 frame 30". How about you?

I would like to find a purpose built Parker duck gun. 12 gauge just for the sake of ammo availability. My meager collection of Parkers are mainly upland guns. Long barrels and heavy!

I’ve mentally been out of the buying mode for a few tears but every once in a while I surprise myself by buying a Parker that I just need to buy…
Not where I want to be but some things just can’t be avoided.

20 gauge with 32” barrels in a DHE to go along with my LC Smith 32” Specialty grade.

I'm looking to downsize this year and move guns I don't shoot or hunt with.

Can’t think of a thing, which means I’ll probably wind up with something.

I want to find and buy the (very possibly) last 8 gauge Parker built, a CH grade nontheless, c. 1918, notation being "Ship to DuPont ballistic laboratory, Wilmington Delaware." Maybe a ballistic foil to the outlaw of the 8 gauge for use on waterfowl that year under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act passed that year?

A modest goal: to become more familiar with the Parker grades and production.
I am constantly going back to the home page to figure out what I'm looking at, so I know what I'm wishing for!
