I am new to Parkers and this is my second gun. It’s a Parker DHE 12g with two barrels set, 26” and 30”. Just picked it up yesterday and it locks up tight, barrels are solid. Some areas of the 26” barrel have lost their blueing but otherwise look good. Wood is very dark. Not sure it has been refinished or not.

More photos. Apologies in advance as I am not a great photographer with an iPhone.

Nice! A two barrel set is nice, assume serial numbers all match, but even if not is a great combo. Do you know what they are choked?

The barrel serial numbers match so they are original from what I can tell. The 26” barrel is choked skeet/modified and the 30” is modified/extra full. This is all according to the seller. I’m going to have these barrels and the barrels on my other gun checked and measured to make sure they are solid.

The wood has been refinished. Very nice gun, especially the engraving.
