Found a real gem this weekend, original DHE 12g s# 155041 .
Only a pad added. Functions flawlessly and looks beautiful for never being touched.

Gun show? Retail store? Internet?

nice find - straight stock DHE is rare - not much case color though for never being touched - couldn't tell by pics but was wondering if you have a silver medallion on the buttstock? - all the higher grade parkers usually did - the wood seems dark, the circassian wood normally put on A through D grade guns was slightly lighter overall with dark graining - probably just the lighting - i also own a DHE with straight stock with 95% original case color, limited use and single trigger SN 236xxx - has RLK Jr on the silver medallion would sure like to know who that was from a historical perspective if there is one - CONGRATULATIONS!! any higher grade parker is a great find any day and hard to come by

From the context, I understood never being touched as not having been restored. Anyhow, great gun for sure, straight stock/long barrel DHEs are my favorite!!

joseph caruso 09-18-2015 06:35 AM

yes a lot of peoples favorite - not many around in original condition

I know its just semantics, but the term "never been touched" is open to interpretation, however i feel the term "original condition" would be more specific to the particular gun being represented - either way a great find!

I think the DHE is the best bang for the buck in the Parker world! That's a very nice, honest gun.

Exactly, Never been touched... except for the recoil pad.
