Gentlemen,
I apologize in advance for using up your time, but my chief Parker guru passed away several years ago. I know something about shotguns, but very little about Parkers.
A friend picked up these 2 stocks and forends at a garage sale, of all places. I assume they were made for the Parker repros - the grip cap says "Parker by Winchester". But that's about all I know. Is there any way of determining what they fit? Do they have any value? The head of the straight grip stock is 1 11/16" wide by 2" deep. The other is 1 9/16" wide by 1 15/16" deep. 12 gauge and 20?
The straight grip stock is particularly nice, and the beavertail is also a fine piece of walnut. Both stocks have skeleton buttplates. One has a checkered butt, the other has a checkered piece made to fit the plate. Both had the hardware loose with the stocks, although there was some rust on those parts.
In any case I appreciate whatever help you can offer.
