Nice, looks like a pretty solid, original old gun in good condition.

That is a nice PH you have. And on a 1 1/2 frame. With the Parker steel barrels, if they have at least 2 5/8" chambers and are sound, they should handle modern shells fine though I would recommend not shooting heavy loads, primarily to protect the 104 year old wood stock. The gun has an extractor not an ejector so it is designated as PH. The PH grade was referred to as a grade 1 gun. I don't see the grade marking on the barrel flats and honestly don't know if they marked grade one barrels as such. I won't put a value on it but I'm sure others will oblige.

Looks like a very nice P grade.

It appears to be an honest, unmolested PH in better condition than many, but not enough to make it a collector piece. With Parker Steel barrels on a 1 1/2 frame (both more desirable) it should bring anywhere from $1000 to $1800 as a nice shooter based on what I've seen in the past couple of years. Although recent online live auction sites have me scratching my head at prices paid for lesser guns. JMHO

More pictures would be welcomed Dawn. Sounds like a nice gun!

I guess I'm a day late and a dollar short! Geeze, I just notice there were 3 pages to this post, and saw the pics. Haha. I think it's a fine looking shooter Dawn, and a 1 1/2 to boot! I would leave it as is and enjoy it!

If it were mine and I had paid less than $1,500 for it, I would send it to a competent gunsmith and have the stock, forend de-oiled and refinished including re-cutting the checkering on stock and forend. I'd leave the metal alone. I'd shoot loads around 1150 fps in it and enjoy the heck out of it.
Just my opinion.
