Hello everybody
This thread is over three years old but I am picking up where my father, David, left off in trying to identify and ultimately sell this gun. I own several shotguns but know very little about Parker or this particular gun. We still have it in our possession and I have uploaded some better quality photos as well as the records letter from Parker:

The 28 gauge barrel set is 22" and the 20 gauge barrel set is 24". I looked at the guide on this website to help determine if the 22" has been cut and to my untrained eye, I see no signs that it has been (I'm referring to the guide:
http://parkerguns.org/pages/faq/CutBarrels.htm).
So I guess ultimately we still want to sell it, and will renew club membership which we allowed to expire to be able to post in the "for sale" forum. Is there any additional info we should try to ascertain before attempting to sell? We were never able to get a good idea of fair price/value either.
One other thing I should mention is that there are some small areas of rust maybe in 3 or 4 places that have started to form, I have since oiled it but am not sure what else can be done to remove the rust and prevent more from forming. I don't have a gun case. Any suggestions here are much appreciated.
