My wife and myself hope to get the pictures attached...don't know whether all this will turn out good or not. As per the Parker letter and conforming to my shotgun, my Parker was shipped in 1905, has 28" barrels and is choked cyl. and mod.

This is a fine example of an original medium grade Parker that has been well cared for and not messed with. It looks the way a Parker should. Congratulations.

A wonderful DH. Lucky you!

That's a great looking original D Grade Parker. Keep it clean & treasure it then hand it down to someone who will appreciate it.

Best Regards, George

What a beauty Mike! Engraving seems incredibly sharp and the colors gorgeous. Nice..

After all the crappy restock jobs, gaudy striped re-case colors, buffed engraving, blocky added beavertail forends, chopped barrels and stocks, we get to see a nice Parker like this that is 105 years old and could go another 100. They are still out there.

Some people colllect armloads of beat up, worn out guns, but all a person needs to have a nice Parker collection is a gun like this and maybe a small bore or a big bore depending upon what he likes.
