VHE stock.

[david ross]

Hi All.
The stocks on most vh and vhe Parkers have quite plan wood. But my gun
also a vhe 12 bore has a little better wood why? Would this be a upgrade
ordered from Parker when new. But who would care a Parker with any grade wood
is a gun to be proud of.
A pict or two.
All the best Dave.

That's a very nice gun. I have found that the wood used is sometimes nicer even in the lower grades during the Remington era of Parker history. When was your gun made?

[Richard Flanders]

That looks more like earlier G grade wood. My Remington era VH12 (1936) has gorgeous blondish wood with some figure. Much nicer than earlier stocks.

[B. Dudley]

Based on the style of the checkering and shaping of the stock, it is a later manufactured gun.

And it was not uncommon for V grade guns into the 1920s and later to use much nicer wood than their earlier counterparts.

I likely do not need to point out that the case colors on your gun are not original and have been restored.

Hard to get much plainer than my 1930 VH-Grade 20-gauge --

Hi Rich.
It is a Remington made Parker 1937.
Thanks Dave.

Another Remington era skeet gun. 20ga., 28" in the 240xxx range. Interesting note to George Purtill- the grip cap and rib are marked Parker Bros. Meriden,CT.

Interesting note to Daryl Corona- if you bring that gun along next time I'm gonna steal it.
