Default New Parker Coach

I have purchased a Parker Coach Gun...excellent shape. I'm waiting on a letter. What kind of things do I need to look for on this gun to prove it's authenticity? The numbers all match, the finish is very good, the gun is really tight. It has some Wells Fargo markings on it as well. Any info would help! Thx

Mark,
Pictures, gauge, barrel length and vin #'s would be good for a start to help us.
Best,
DD

Hi Mark,

If you post the serial number someone will check the PARKER SERIALIZATION AND IDENTIFICATION Book, i.e. the Book, for it's original configuration.

Wow...I finally figured out how to get these pictures on here...I have alot more in an album titled parker coach gun. This is a 12 ga Parker, It is a really tight gun and is in very good shape for its age. Go ahead and look it over and give me some honest feedback. Please visit the album and look at the rest of the pictures. I hope you will like what you see. thanks

I would also try to contact Wells Fargo and see if they can provide any evidence that the gun was indeed shipped to them from Parker.

Default All those pictures, But

No shots of the muzzle ends of the tubes! Could well preclude the need for a letter.

Mark,
Great pics, thanks for all the effort in sharing the great find. For my use, I'd figured I had purchased enough Parkers, I would add that one in a heart beat.

PS And thanks for the "vin #'s"
