nice gun

This is one time I really wish I had a digital camera. On tuesday evening, at my skeet club, a fella brought out a gun that we were allowed to shoot. It was a Parker 20ga. skeet gun, it had 11 gold engravings and has to be the most beautiful gun I've ever had the privilage to hold. The value was $31,000. This is one of those things I would want everyone to be able to hold just once in their shooting life, let alone be allowed to shoot.
The gentleman who owns it was injured in a car accident several years ago and later had a stroke and he can no longer shoot. He still enjoys watching and dealing in fine guns. I can't tell you how many nice guns he has brought out for us to see and shoot. I feel lucky to be allowed.
Just had to share this with someone.
