I a new guy

[Paul Zielinski]

I am new to this forum. I joined because I was recently handed down a Parker shotgun. Pretty sure its a 12 guage from 1905. Stock is blackened from gun grease. One foren screw that is real obvious cause its rught under the lever to break the action. No rust inside or out. I cant wait to photograph it so the club can value it and tell me the first steps to repairing the blackened stock. S#133420, Frame size 2, Grade V Barrel weight 4.3. Does it sound like a typical Parker?

there are so many variations -"typical" may be hard to define,

what length are the barrels? and does it have extractors or ejectors? a #2 frame 12 with 4lbs with some length in the tubes would be a good duck gun.

that serial number is not in the book, but there would be information for a research letter
