Hi
I'm new to this forum.
Need information on this one
Serial number 4249

30" Damascus 12 gauge. Pics would help with grade.

Looks like a Grade 5 or a B grade.

I believe Mr. Romig is spot on w/grade estimation. Quite the looker for an early Lifter.

On a 1 frame to boot. Nice gun!

Not only is it a lifter, but also a pin lifter with pin protruding from the top when opened. That feature was phased out pretty early in production. I have serial number 3402 and the pin hole is plugged, so it doesn't raise above the top.
That is a very nice graded lifter!

Is it 6k worthy. I'm a Colt SAA collector, but want to start a collection of Parker shotgun.
Any help would be great.

Dave, I have a #3700 range gun that looks the same but the "pin" that comes out the top of earlier guns is just a plug that doesn't move up when the lifter is depressed like my #1700 range gun does. I assume they kept using the original frames after they made the minor modification to the lifter mechanism and just plugged the hole.

As an edit, I now see a couple photos that appear to show the pin extended out the top of the action.

That is a beautiful high grade gun.

show some photos of the stock if you will thanks Gary

Just wondering if the stock was ball gip are pistol grip or straight grip, I would assume a ball grip! A very nice lifter indeed! also I would guess a SBP ? Gary

It has a ball grip.
