Default Cabelas 28 Gauge VH

I don’t have my copy of the Parker story close, but I’m sure their can’t be many 28 gauge VH’s with factory 25” barrels.

It belonged to a gentleman from Lansing MI. A nice gun for what it is with Michigan connections but I have three already

Outstanding source of information. I know that last part in code means, with only 3 in residency, a fourth wouldn't cost that much to feed.

The VH 28 gauge I once owned was choked the same as this one and it was perfect as far as I was concerned. It was an early 0 frame and the rims of modern shells are thicker than their predicesors and would not chamber. I purchased a 28 gauge chamber reamer to correct the fault. Apparently the early 28's were all plagued with this as I loaned the reamer to a hand full of Parker members.

That is an early 28. I think the 0 frame 28 I had was a 1901 gun.
