Default New to Parker Forum

Hello everyone I justed wanted to take a second and say thank you for having me here. Secondly I wanted to ask the experts here about an estimate value on a Parker 20 gauge (dbl barrel - SxS), date is 1901 and the grade is VH. The left barrel has 2 small dents on the inside and some slight rusting on the barrels. Lever for the barrel release is loose but working. Any help is greatly appreciated . Thank you again for having me here/

Hey Patrick!

Not a problem - my thanks for posting in the Forum..! Actually - I do own a couple of VH 20 GA Parkers - and for market price - condition is everything..?? As well - if you can post pictures and/or serial number - we can be a bit more accurate in our estimation?

Anyway - if yours is all original - and depending on the rust you mentioned, and no cracked wood and the barrel dings can be pushed and no case coloring - and this is ONLY A RANGE - probably in the $1400 - $2000, as I'm also guessing it needs to be tightened? BUT - again - pictures are worth their weight in gold...

Best to you!

John

I understand. I will try to get some pics. The gun has never been in for a repair but my father and grandfather were very meticulous on the cleaning after hunting. Not until later did he let them slip. I also have a 16 ga LC Smith this I am looking on some info for. It is a dbl barrel SxS and it is in pretty good condition. It is a Specialty model and dates back to 1915.
