Restoring an old Parker
My father was given an old Parker Bros shotgun about fifty years ago to use as a templet to build a gun cabinet for
a customer. The shotgun had no front stock and the rear stock was cracked. After the cabinet was finished, the customer did not want the Parker back. My father held it for twenty years then passed it to me thirty years ago and it has been packed away since. Now I am thinking of restoring it but I am not sure if it is worth it. The gun needs new stocks and metal refinishing. The serial number is 1247L3 and stamped Vulcan steel. Can anyone give me an idea the cost of the restoration and any opinion about it being worth the effort. Thanks
