What is the serial number? There were a few dog's head buttplates for the various periods of Parker VHE production. Is the stock inletted for a spurred buttplate?

[gregcrum]

the serial number is 131888. to be honest i am not realy sure. when i had bought it the gun had a after market recoil pad on it.

[Dean Romig]

I believe your Parker would have had a buttplate just like the one displayed on the gunbroker.com item no. 155817436

[gregcrum]

ok thanks for the help i did look at the butt plate then compared it to galazan they had one. thanks again for the help.

[gregcrum]

i had ordered one from galazan just like the one on gunbroker and it is way to big how would i be able to get the right one

There are several sizes and styles on eBay right now under "parker gun parts".

Buttplates usually require a little fitting, if you find one that's a perfect fit right off the shelf then you'd better buy a lottery ticket that day too.

Actually they require a lot of fitting and if you find one that's a "perfect fit right off the shelf" it probably came from your own gun way back when.
