Of all days to be busy

Post by 6pt-sika »

I was busy from the moment I woke up until right after lunch . At that point I went on the Parker forum and found out a pair of Parker 20 gauge hammer guns were being listed on Guns International momentarily. The post was made at 10:30 I saw it at about 13:30 . So I looked couldn’t find the listing so I sent the seller a text as I know him and have his number in my phone . I asked if the gun was sold and if it were a top lever Parker ? He told me sold and yes a top lever . Finally I saw pics and the factory letter info . This one was spendy but I’d have jumped , 20 gauge Parker original hammer guns are few and far between . Gun was sent back at a later date and had fluid steel 28 gauge barrels fitted to it , unfortunately the 28’s are no longer with it . Oh well maybe next time lols !

I really really like the fishtail lever on this little gun and the lightening cuts in the water table 8)

That is one beautiful shotgun, commiserations on missing it. I only wish I could say I was the lucky buyer.. :(
If more men loved and cherished their wives as much as I love bacon the world would be a much better place.

This is going to sound kinda stupid but my main reason for wanting it was so I had a 20 gauge hammer gun to shoot in that event at the vintage shoots . And sure there are other cheaper options , but I kinda have a brand loyalty !
