I have a parker gun stock with the trigger gaurd on it. I
Need help identifying what model and gauge it is. The trigger gaurd and stock are stamped 8847. The trigger gaurd also has engravings and C H P. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

That is not a Parker Brothers stock but probably off a European gun using aParker name

Yes it is. The numbers under the trigger gaurd match

We are trying to help you. It's not a Parker Brothers stock or trigger guard.

Why is C.H.P. Engraved on it then?

Ask the guy that engraved it. How would we know?

Being a smartass isn't really helping

Both Jim and I told you the truth but I guess you've studied and collected Parker Brothers shotguns more than we have.

Ok. Could you just tell me what a parker s shotgun labeled 8847 would be?

That is an LC Smith stock.
Regular frame.
It is hard to tell for sure from your photos, but I don't think it is a factory smith stock.

Could anyone forget about the stock and tell me what a parker shotgun serial number 8847 was. Please

I would suggest picking up a copy of the serialization book and you can look that number up, if it is in there.

If you only have one thing with a number on it, what does it match?
Maybe it's just me, but If I had something I knew nothing about, I wouldn't argue with people on a forum, who actually might know something about it.
Where did you get the idea that CHP meant it was a Parker?

Brice, that serial # belongs to a straight stock Parker. Your stock has a pistol grip. I have an old Smith receiver and side plates that would fit your stock perfectly.
