Default New Gun, Looking to learn about it

Hey guys I recently took the plunge into the world of Parker Brothers shotguns on a deal locally listed to me that was too good to pass up. It's a beater by many of the standards I see here but it should make a good shooter.

Here is what I know about it;

It's a Parker 12 Gauge Hammer Gun.
Serial # 50552
Frame Size - 2
Grade - 1
Laminated Steel Barrels

The downside of the gun is the wood is pretty well beat. The stock is showing some fractures/cracks around the wrist area and a major chip off the butt. I included some pictures to show.

I'm wondering the value of the gun as it sits judging by the pictures and is this gun something that is worth refurbishing or would it be best as a wall hanger? It has no sentimental value to me. Not sure if I overpaid but I'm a sucker for older sxs shotguns. Thanks in advance guys and can't wait to learn about this gun.
