I have been passed down what I believe is a parker. However I would like someone else to look at it. Is there anyone in Iowa that I could go to? The gun is also in very bad shape so I would like to know if it is restorable. Any help would be great.

There are photos of each grade of Parker in a link on the home page, or post some pictures here and you should get a response.

Please post all markings on gun especially any marking on the rib between the barrels and numbers.

A Belgian gun with little value! Don't spend a penny on this one!

Shawn;
the E over LG in an oval (first two pictures) is a Belgium proof mark. it was a very common practice for some companies there to produce very cheap guns and stamp a well known makers name on them. Parker knock offs show up as do many good British makers very often.
If it has sentimental value, hang it on the wall, but it is not a restoration project. as stated - don't spend a penny
