VHE Parker - 20 gauge Pigeon gun....?
Hi, all!
I was at a gun auction over the weekend and on preview day I saw a Parker VHE w/ 30" barrels - with NO safety on top of the tang..! For those who would know - was this made as a pigeon gun, possibly? I have never seen one like it before. It sold today for $3,100. to an Indiana buyer. The gun was made in 1920 on a #1 frame. I can go back to get the serial number if it's needed? It did have a good Jostam pad installed - a brick color. The tang was never cut for a safety lever it appeared to me. Interesting Parker...just thought IF others have seen 20 gauges like it before? Thank you! Wes |
Need a PGCA letter to confirm that it was actually made without a safety.

We had a DHE 16 gauge 31” that lettered as such in the shop for sale a few years back that left the factory without a safety . Ida bought that gun but some Jack leg had it redone and not the best I ever saw .

Gentlemen,
The serial # of the Parker VHE was #185852. IF the safety was there in the past, someone did a great job filling in the slot. Thank you all for your replies. {Seeing it was a first for this old guy..!} Wes |
I'll dig in the safe and take a picture.
