John, you have a VH 12 ga with 26 inch bbls. The V stands for the vulcan steel used to make the bbls. It is one of the low end shotguns as you can see by the lack of intricate engraving. It seems to be in very nive shape with good screws. It's probably in the $1500 to $2500 range. Of course having come from your pops you can forgert what it's worth, and you defenetly should take it out and shot the heck out of it. After you get that little problem resolved. I'm sure you'll get plenty of help with that from this forum. Welcome to the world of Parkers.

Taken apart again
Hi all, I have taken the barrels off and put them on again, still have the same problem of not being able to break it, I keep taking the barrels off to look and see what is the problem, any help would be appreciated. You are right about value, it came from my Dads friends widow to him, my Mom gave it to the police to be destroyed as she did not want it, I found out from 400 miles away and went through a big deal with the police to get it back, hows that for a story, I'll never sell it.

The V I saw is above the serial #, on the watertable, so I assumed this was the grade, any information on my gun is appreciated.

John, it is not, as you had stated, a VHE but, in fact, a VH. The "E" represents ejectors but yours has a simple extractor mechanism rather than the sometimes troublesome ejector mechanism. Looks like it has been standing on its heel for a long time.
