Honestly, the pictures just aren't crisp enough to get a feel for the condition.

Agreed...the pics are too blurry. Those hammer marks on the water table are not too cool. It also looks like the stock might be cracked above the trigger guard area?

Either way, the gun is not in great shape...it looks like it might be fair condition.

I prefer the DD's if they are original :whistle:

There is a small crack above the trigger guard. I would say it is in fair condition. But how many A6 in original condition. Even in fair condition I wonder how much I should pay.

Edward,

It is very hard to judge without gun in hand or good photos. That stated, AH guns are rare and desirable. If the engraving is sharp, the barrels are not pitted or honed, and the stock isn't cracked and full of wood putty in spots you found a keeper!

Price range from $5,000 to $15,000, maybe more. I like 10 gauges so for me, and a few guys like me, that's a very desirable gun! Many others would not give a darn about a 10 gauge. To each their own.

An AH Parker sells for real money. It's best to get a mentor to help you value one of them. Why don't you state where you live and ask for the help of another PGCA member who lives close to you. You need someone who really knows the value of a high grade Parker.

I let my Blue Book esubscription expire. Could someone post the range of prices for an AH 10 gauge from 20% to 90% condition? He has tried to comply with our requests but still doesn't have a price range.


Best,

Mike

First Edward, what does the owner expect to be paid for it?

Have you asked him or is he leaving it up to you to make an offer?

What amount would you part with in order to have it in your possession?

It is difficult from the poor quality of those pictures to discern the condition of every part of that gun in great detail, however, it looks to be well used and shows distinct signs of a good amount of wear.

Would you be comfortable with parting with $6K ? If so, make the offer... or are you afraid he'll accept your offer?

Just thinkin' out loud...

A couple years ago at the Southern there was a similar AH and I think the price was 9500, I don't know if it sold or not. I do know that the dealer bought it for 7500 before he put it on his table, it was a 12ga. What I really liked about it was the half pistol grip with gold cap, I have a fetish for those.

But usually not, IMHO:eek:

Yup,

An AH 10 for $6k is a good price if it is not a wreck. If you do not like it you should be able to get your money out of it and maybe more from someone who will enjoy owning it. Please keep me in mind. Heck, an AH 12 followed me home this week that you might like... :whistle:
