A bit of tongue in cheek, in my comment..These lovely old (now) guns deserve all the rspect we can give them..I often wonder what kind of fodder they have been offerred before we knew them..

Walter, those are very fine guns. I especially admire the 1926 gun with monte carlo.

I shoot most of my trap with a Parker 34 inch DHE built on a #3 frame. It's my regular duck gun so I like to keep it limber during the off season.
My other trap gun is a Stevens Model 522 Trap Grade pump gun. Really a hoot to use that one on occasion. It's got a straight grip stock, 32 inch barrel, with a big wide solid rib on it. I think I actually shoot it better than the Parker but I still reach for the Parker more often.

I do with my Baker Paragon 30" F&F or the Baker "A" grade 30" F&F or even the Baker "B" grade 28" F&F. But I am really looking forward to getting my Baker Sterling back to try some trap with it. The sporting clay guns are also Bakers, Either a Leader or "B" grades, with various chokes.

Lovely, lovely guns. I would consider it an honor to shoot trap with any of them. My model 12 will get some ATA shooting time, and a Winchester 21 VR trap will definitely get some doubles action. It is nice to see other ATA shooters using the old good ones.
