Over on the double gun site, for sale section
16 ga baker black beauty
Most of the bluing is still there, except in the hingepin area. Barrels are fluid steel, 28" long choked full and modified and bores are bright, no pitting. Chambers 2&9/16". Concave swamped rib. Butt stock shows some nice figure and forearm is solid. The gun is very tight and lever is well to right side. Original butt plate is broken at the toe. Firing pin for left barrel is broken. It just broke and I don't want to get in to fixing this so I decided to sell it to someone who can treat it as diserved. Asking $500.00 I have wads and hulls I'll thrown in if shipping is paid. I have some pictures. matching numbers. Folsom gun.

The Baker should be in my hands come Monday or Tuesday. I will let you know if it looks as good in real life, as it does in the picture.  I'm due for a change. Shot skeet today with my 16 gauge, GH, Parker. And boy was it ugly.  |

Rev, The Parker isn't ugly, my skeet shooting was ugly. Of course I'm trying to shoot skeet with mod. and full chokes. ( I've got more excusses )
I just loaded some shells with the petals cut off the wads, maybe that will help. I'll try again on Sunday.  |
