Very early P gun with "getting started" checkering on forend. Great wood in buttstock. Screws are either prototype period screws or have been messed with a bit. I would rather pay another $500 for a later gun when the checkerers were better trained and practiced and the screw mechanics had made and installed a few more screws. A great piece of Parker Repro history at a reasonable price and 28" barrels. The color of the early Emebbi case lining is not a trick of the camera. The color was really that ugly. Thanks to the Skeuses, the lining problem was corrected very early in production. But that wood is really nice.
