Edgar,

Yes, Rickey should check the DHE against the book. Rickey did however state that the DHE has what appears to be a mediocre restock. The price may even be too high if the wood to metal fit has gaps.

Mark

the frame and barrels are perfect. Gun specs o 28 inch barrels. the wood to metal fit on restock is not as tight as one would want to see. original forend. butt has been replaced though. Nice wood not proud.

Rickey, it is ultimately your decision. If you buy it and fall in love with it you will think you made the right decision, but if you buy it and then aren't really pleased with it you will blame us for giving you bad instruction. Don't be in a rush, there are a lot of nice Parker's out there and some at good deal prices. Wait for the one YOU feel is right for you.
