DHE information
I'm not familiar at all with Parker Reproductions, so this is the information I have: The gun is a DHE with gold inlays on all three game scenes as well as the "Parker" on the underside. It is a 20ga two barrel gun with Briley chokes. It also has a Briley 410 tubes. It has the case and all accessories, including both 20 and 410 snap caps. The current owner says the story he was told when purchasing the gun is that it was made for Jack Skeuse? It has a shorter LOP and the case was made to fit. The current owner is having a stock with a longer LOP made to fit the gun, he also of course has the original. I do have the serial number if that would help. My questions are: Did the factory do gold inlay on DHE's? Would the records show who this gun was ordered for and the original configuration? Did it leave the factory with the Briley tubes/chokes? The case was made to fit the chokes and a separate place for the Briley tubes. It is a Parker Reproduction case with the dust cover. The last question would be and the one that's most difficult for me to explain without much knowledge of Parker Reproductions is why would Jack Skeuse have a DHE with gold inlay, vs a BHE or A? I'm sure the family had some Parker Reproductions made for themselves.
I'm considering purchasing this, but would like as much verified as possible. Thanks in advance for your help.
