Default No original trunk style case

Want to tread lightly here. If you are looking at a otherwise nice condition repro that is for sale, how much would you discount the price if there is no case ? Have no history on the gun or where the original hard case went. Thank you all for any and all info or help. Mark

The gun is valued by itself unless it is advertised as "with case".

It is not "discounted" because a case doesn't come with it.

An original Repro case can be purchased separately on the internet. Generally, a case with it's zippered canvas cover, in very good condition should command a price of somewhere around $400.

Here's a pretty good deal on one with red lining. Labels can be purchased from Jeff's Outfitters or Galazan.

There have been many of these available from this seller. I have one and am not impressed. They state LEATHER but I have a hard time believing it is not vinyl.

If that's an original and genuine Parker Reproduction case, it doesn't look like any that I have ever seen before.

The original Parker Repro cases were made by an Italian company by the name of Emmebi. They sold me their last Parker Repro gun case label.

If an original Repro case can't be found I like Jeff's Compact Toe Under all leather cases. Add a CSMC repro label and it is a good substitute.
