AAHE 410
 

Does anybody know anything about the AAHE 410 that Connecticut Shotgun has listed today on Guns International? They say that its in 100% condition with full documentation. I didn't think Parker ever made a 410 in this grade. I also wonder why they only show three pictures. Personally I would have shown and at least 20 and probably more. Surely somebody on the site has heard of this gun in the past and will comment on it.

About 8-10 years ago they had a AAHE .410 upgrade done by DelGrego and Runge. It was microscopically signed by both men along the leading edge of the floor plate… same gun??

Nope, I just looked at the pics and it is not the upgrade they had before. IMO this one is the real deal !!

Wow, that one would empty my wallet, my safe, my bank account, etc...

Looks like a gem though.

$4,795 PLUS 1,350 SHELLS PER WEEK???? :corn: :corn:

And therein lies the problem. There are missing records and just seems peculiar that some 'smiths/makers seem to get their hands on high grade guns that have no documentation to make one believe they are paying for an honest to goodness original high grade gun and not a lower grade that was somehow "upgraded".

Can't find it. Searched "Parker 410" on GI and it doesn't show up. Give us a link or item number, please. I don't want to be left in the dust.

Return policy….No Returns.

Only 3 photos. And the photos look like photos of a photo. All distorted and stuff. Who knows…

I agree 100% John. Pictures please.....................


The pictures they do have posted (all 3 of them....) are terrible.

This is just a personal thing , but I’ve never had an overly positive opinion of that outfit in general .

And it sure doesn’t look likev100% condition to me either.

Unicorn poop.

I wish they would post the price. I would call myself and ask but I have had a couple of bad experiences with this outfit and have learned my lesson. Glad they didn't have the No Return policy then and I was refunded my money. Anyway-I would still like to know the price of this gun and the serial number to research myself. If the gun would happen to be legit(big if)-it would probably be one of the best Parkers out there.

They sell a bunch of expensive guns so I don’t understand the POR. Also, the description says “ The gun is from the original owners Family who ordered the gun with every conceivable piece of paperwork including sketches of the engraving. ”. Yet no picture of any paperwork.

I can't understand why you wouldn't post several close-up pictures of a gun of this caliber unless you were hiding something. They had a minty BHE-16 gauge awhile back on Guns International that they showed several good pictures of and even went on youtube to show and tell how great the condition was. Doesn't make alot of sense to me why they aren't promoting this gun more.

They say it’s validated blah blah blah yet they don’t see fit to even show the serial number ?

POR means you aren’t buying this one without first making a trip for a hands on inspection. Personal Observation Required.

To me it means the price is so far out of the realm of possibility that they want to get you on the phone so they can give you the “good ole boy” used car salesman spiel . But maybe that’s just the cynic in me :rotf:

Sale add also states Make Offer what a waste of time

Any POR listing is just fishing.

The “No Returns” statement is because NOBODY is going to buy this gun or commit to it off their Internet site. You will go there and examine the gun for a couple of hours and make your decision to buy it. If you missed something during your thorough examination of the gun… you will own the gun AND your mistake.

this all sounds fishy to me.....charlie

Terrible comes to my mind. I inquired about a 16g in the chat box as it wasn't in the serialization book and wanted to see the muzzle end. The chattee on the other end replied "Unless you're buying don't use this box"

Is this not the same seller discussed as having enhanced some guns from the G&D auction? The inflation thread……If you can turn a $3k gun into a $10k gun almost overnight, imagine the magic able to be created with a specimen where there is little intersecting documentation/records.

I see no surprise here.

The ad says they have supporting documentation from the original owner. It would help to post photos of that stuff.

I wonder why he did not .

Murphy is standing there with his checkbook in hand I'm sure.

I would appreciate my name not being mentioned in a thread that is trashing a dealer in Parker guns. I would also appreciate posters witholding thanks for such posts. If I want to trash a dealer or seller, let me do it myself. Thanks.

Better delete your comment wanting to see a link to the gun then.

I would like to see any Parker for sale, whether I end up being interested in it or not. Requesting a link is not trashing a dealer or seller.

Lots of sellers on the 'net don't like to post the whole serial number. Not necessarily a problem for me.

I am skeptical as well, however not too proud to ask for the serial # and the price!

When I first started using GB I wouldn’t allow the serial number to be seen . But I got over that pretty quick . Now when I list a gun I make sure the serial number on the water table , the trigger guard , the barrels and the forearm . Cuts down on a good many questions . I’ll say this , if I’m personally thinking about buying and they won’t divulge the serial number it’s a deal breaker .

A few years ago Remington Arms commissioned Galazan to build a small few of AAHE 28 ga and 410 bore. The fact that Remington purchased Parker in the 1930’s, Remington and Galazan maintain these guns are a continuation of the Parker Gun production. The asking price for several years was $50,000.00. Remington entered Bankruptcy and a few of these guns were sold at auction for somewhere in the low to mid $30,000 range.

My quess is that this is one of those guns. Obviously I don’t Know, just Think.

I thought it was for the 20ga AHE, I am probably wrong, any way it did not sell good, Gary

I never knew of any of those Remington/Galazan/Parkers to have been made in .410 - I thought they were all 28 gauge guns.

That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.

They were all 28g guns. They made about 12. Half of them actually sold.

A while back CSMC had one of those guns they made for Remington for sale that was rather poorly fitted with .410-bore barrels.
