Newer "old guy"

[Peter Erickson]

Hi, stumbled on this site while googeling a Parker PG that I have had for ages sitting in my cabinet and since I am getting to the age where I need to think of trimming the herd was wondering what a fair market price would be for such a shotgun. Will post pics in another thread. Thanks for any help or info

[Dean Romig]

What is a "Parker PG"?

That's a very nice Parker Bros. bill of sale!

Do you own the gun listed on the bill of sale or just the paper?

.......or both?????

[Peter Erickson]

Both check out thread on other forum for pics & info

[Chuck Bishop]

Dean here is a big hint on what it means

Fill in the blanks: Pisto_ Gri_:banghead::banghead::banghead:

[Dave Suponski]

Come on Dean...:rolleyes:

[Dean Romig]

Okay... okay... I get it now.

I have a lotta Parker "PG's"... Why, I even have a Ruger "PG" and a Winchester "PG". I have a Weatherby "PG" and a TC "PG" too. I also have a Parker 'project' "PG" that I'm changing to a Parker SG..... How'm I doin' ?

My '96 GMC is a PIG... but that's beside the point.

Oh, by the way, The Parker that Mr. Erickson shows in his other thread appears to be a very decent VH ... :smiley7: or Vulcan, if you will.

Why PG on bill of sale???

[Dean Romig]

Hi Mr. Erickson - The gun is actually shown as # 131381 12/30 (which is 12 gauge with 30" barrels) Vulcan (which refers to the grade of the Parker, a VH or as marked on the barrel rib, Vulcan Steel... V = Vulcan, H = Hammerless) and the PG refers to the stock's grip style, in this case a PG = Pistol Grip.

I was 'funnin'" with the other guys, no disrespect to you at all.

[Peter Erickson]

Thank You!

[Dave Suponski]

A very cool invoice. The gun literally went to the town next door to Meriden. I am sure Mr. Winter was very pleased with his new Parker Bros. shotgun. I looks as though it was well cared for.

[Dean Romig]

Can anyone read the signature of the recipient of payment on the bottom?

[Dennis V. Nix]

C. C. Perrin or Porrin maybe.

[Dave Suponski]

I went through the Parker Story and couldn't find that name.

[Dean Romig]

C.C. Parsons?

[Chuck Bishop]

What would you guys do without me?

C.C. Powers - bookkeeper

[Dean Romig]

We'd be lost Chuck!

No vacations for you my friend - you can't leave the house... you're just too valuable!

[Chuck Bishop]

Sorry Dean, It's up to Ilion then Maine for the week. You guys will have to keep the ship afloat while I'm gone.:eek:

[Dean Romig]

Remember the discussion we had yesterday concerning Indian names of places in Maine?

Maine has nothing on Massachusetts.....


Literal translation from Nipmuk language is: "You fish on your side, I fish on my side and nobody fish in the middle."

Dean, Can you pronounce that name?
