That was an excellent purchase Mike - you couldn't have done better and I agree with Chuck - don't do anything to it as far as refinishing it. It is a great gun and well cared for.

Yeah. I'm not touching it. This gun was shot a lot and someone really enjoyed it. Was it supposed to have a patent date beside the release tab on the forearm? If so ,its pretty much worn off as is most of the checkering. Like I said, this gun was ENJOYED!

The forend latch patent date was eliminated from that location long before your gun was produced.

Cool. I was sorta worried. Once I get the paperwork I gotta send this one off for an appraisal. To hard, with the extra info, to determine a value.

Mike your gun has an interesting past. Please release the top lever after disassembling the gun and allow it to return gently to center otherwise you are liable to break the top lever. With thumb on side of top lever depress metal tab in bottom rear of receiver water table with a tool. Voila you will have saved damaging your gun.

Thanks man. Done. I have some pretty nice guns(colts,Winchesters) that are valuable,over the 10k number, but have never had a Parker other than an old trojan. It's hard to look at a gun like this and see any crazy value or worry about breaking somethinsomething like that which would kill any value it does have I assume. Seems pretty crazy.

That gun has got to have some stories to tell. It has most definitely seen a lot of woods and likely killed a lot of birds. Nice gun.
