Maybe 8lbs of lead in the stock.

i found it 16 lbs as stated...probly 8 lb gun and a 8 lb box....charlie

A custom gun with the top tang screw that buggered up. If that's a premium Parker I'll kiss your Mossberg:eek:

A safe queen or a drag queen? Not my favorite style of embellishment.

Here is another one that is a bit of a stretch, a "rare" Parker Brothers "CH". Possibly renewed? (including the serial number).

That gun that Bob Brown has linked here has a couple of 'warts' but has a LOT of appealing features - like a Miller selective trigger, ejectors, an original ventilated rib, and a screaming piece of wood. It would take a bit of work and a couple of $K but it could be made into a really nice gun.... although it will never be a "C".

The original barrels were 30" Damascus so the 'donor' barrels must have come from a vent-rib gun with 28" F/F chokes.... if we can believe the description's accuracy on the chokes.

Is that Claro or some really nice Circassian?

English or Circassian depending on when you bought it.Looks like the thin shell walnut from California that Pachmayr used to sell.Local guy has a garage full of it.Literally.

It isnt even a C grade gun. G grade. And wasnt originally a straight grip gun. Another one who couldnt get the proper guard when doing a SG conversion. And i see someone else likes to blue their Parker top levers too.

At least the asking price isnt too far out of line for what the gun is.

When I posted the link to the GH that was called a CH I thought the serial number had been altered. Does that look like the original serial number? I'll give them a call tomorrow and ask for a picture of the serial number on the frame and barrel flats.

Yes, it looks right to me.
