New GH Need Advice

[esetter - Gerry Addison]

I just picked up this Parker GH two barrel set on a number 2 frame. The gun has a 30" set of barrels with .738 bores and .040 of choke in both barrels. The other set is 27" (obviously cut but well done), again with .738 bores and cylinder in the right and .003 in the left barrel. Both barrels are numbered to the gun in exactly the same way and one barrel is marked 2 on the forend lug as is the forend for that set of barrels. There are two splinter forends for the gun. I've included some pictures of the gun. The advice I need is looking at the pictures would you recommend a restoration of the gun, maybe just a stock refinish. Gun appears to be all original. Barrels very tight on face and barrels have nice bores. In the serialization book as a 1907 gun serial number 145341. Has good shooting dimensions as well. Screws are not perfect but not bad at all. Has nice figure for a G grade gun. What do you guys think?

Gerry, If it were mine I would leave it alone.

Gerry, you of all people know that you don't restore such guns. Let us know when you get your PGCA letter or decide to sell the gun.

Thanks for the comments on the gun. I have to get some low pressure shells now to shoot in it.
