The receiver looks incredible. I don't think I'd let the bluing bother me ONE LITTLE BIT on that one. What a gorgeous gun. I don't have a 34" gun but do shoot (at) ducks with a 32" hammer gun and it will really reach out there. Trigg used to have a v nice 34" G grade but has long sold it.

Well what do you do on Easter Sunday while you are waiting for a late afternoon dinner? You tear your new Parker apart and clean the heck out of it! I was amazed at how dirty the receiver was on the outside. I tried to take some very clear pictures of the engraving emphasizing what I think is very crisp and clean. I did not find any case color on the inside but I do not believe the blue is original. Have a great afternoon.

Yes the nifty pay pall ordering thingy was done on Friday night. I am looking forward to this one for sure.

It's hard to tell that it's been blued by the photo's. The engraving looks exceptional for a D grade, there is a lot of fine detail. Consider me green!

Nice gun. Nice photos.

Definitely one of the nicer 'finds' I've seen in a while. The difference between you and me is that the gun woulda been gone when I went back to get it.

I have a 32" DHE from 1915 just like this one. It has deep engraving also, and it seems to me that guns from around this era have extraordinary engraving. Enjoy, that is one great gun.
