0 frame 16's are my favorite kind of Parker.

Looks like a well carried Colt Huntsman First Issue 4 1/2-inch. My father and uncles had Woodsman. Only two pistols I own.

You're not alone, though none of us are looking for a cure.

Darren, I would recommend that you send the gun to me immediately for disposal. That gun is an accident waiting to happen with those uber dangerous twist steel barrels and probably short chambers which should never ever be shot with smokeless powder shells. I will be happy to safely keep that gun out of the hands of the unsuspecting shooting public. PM me and I'll send you my address and a prepaid shipping container.

Ha! As stoked as I am with this gun I'll probably never get rid of it. I know it's probably not with much, but it's worth a lot to me.

Noticed one other thing in the pictures. What is with that second screw in the trigger guard tang, obscuring the last digit of the serial number?
