By no means am I trying to knock the NH/PH as I have both in 10 gauge 3 frames however for some reason I've always liked the VH and EH/GH guns more . I suppose because when I was a good bit younger all the Parker guns I ever saw were VH and later in life when I started acquiring more the EH/GH was the first I owned with animal engraving so to speak .

Thats interesting , my NH is a 10 gauge but its on a #6 frame the price was still $70 so the larger frame sized didnt add to the cost . I suppose the extra $35 for a 8 gauge was from the cost of the barrels . Then again you would think #6 frame 10 gauge barrels would have cost more to make than #3 frame 10 gauge barrels .

So a PH 8 gauge would be $100 or the same price as a smaller gauge DH from the looks of it ?

Found this price list of 1912 , the prices here are different than what I seen in a another Parkers 1912 catalog .
