[David Noble]

That is one awesome gun! Congratulations.

[Reggie Bishop]

Yes very nice Parker!

[William Machauer]

Thanks guys!

Beautiful Trap Gun! Does anyone know how many were produced in this configuration?

[Dylan Rhodes]

If the forearm is original, less than 163. That is the total number of VH with BT forearms.

[todd allen]

Then add barrel length, and vent rib. I think you're below 20.

[todd allen]

Oh, and 11/2 frame and single trigger.

[todd allen]

I have done some research on this configuration, and this is an extremely rare combo of features.
Probably less than 20.
BTW, I have serial number 240941. Same configuration.
I also owned the same exact configuration in a Runge/DelGreco A1 Special, which I foolishly sold.
This is a small world at times.

[Wally Barrick]

I thought I saw 18 somewhere... Very nice gun! I would be interested in knowing to who the gun was originally issued.

Mine is configured exactly the same with serial: 239089

[William Machauer]

I had a pretty good idea that this is a rare configuration, 1 of 18 or 20 I didn't expect!

To be honest I saw this gun online about 2 months ago and I was dragging my feet to go look at it. Finally my curiosity got the better of me and the owner said I could shoot it. As I mentioned in my 'Going to test drive ...' I shot a 22 with the right barrel,a 22 with the left. The fact I haven't shot a clay target since last summer at the bunker, not a 16yd target in years and this Parker crushed everything I broke sealed the deal.
I have filled out the PGCA request, cut the check and am at the mercy of the usps to find out who/what& when for this gun.
I'd be interested in any info that could be pertinent concerning it being a rare bird like I thought.
Thanks!

This is mine
141575
Bores are perfect, chokes are untouched

[William Machauer]

Very nice Todd, it appears your color case is in better shape than mine.

[David Noble]

This is mine


That's a fine cue stick you've got there Todd. And it's a takedown model too!
:bowdown:

[Jim DiSpagno]

Well, there is another configured just like those mentioned above. It's on Proxibid and at Lock, Stock,and Barrel auction on Friday May 1st. Lot # 1130 and the current bid is $650.00

That's a Damascus barreled M 97. Not a take-down model unfortunately.

I've got a 20 dollar bill that says it will at least double at the close :rotf:

[John Davis]

That’s a real beauty! I told you in your original thread to quit worrying about the money and buy it. Pay the man. I was correct.

[William Machauer]

Yes John, there was never any doubt I was going to buy it- my gun fund was a little in the red so we had to haggle for a trade.
Its mine now, I gotta wait until the end of May to try it on helice. I'll get out to the bunker before then I hope!
Nothing wrong with 16yd targets but I much prefer bunker targets!

I bet if it doesn’t do six or seven times that it won’t meet reserve that I “assume” it has .

[Jim DiSpagno]

Craig, it's at $850.00 now and has no reserve.

[J. Scott Hanes]

Actually it is at $2600 (not on Proxibid yet)

[Jim DiSpagno]

Thanks

[CraigThompson]

Craig, it's at $850.00 now and has no reserve.

I’ve been watching on invaluable it’s still under $500 there .
