Value and maybe sell
 
5 Attachment(s)
I have a Parker that I have had for over 50 years. I am looking to see what its value might be and where is the best place to sell it. I am new to this forum and definitely a novice. i will attach pictures of the gun. It is all in the original condition as when I got it except it was loaned out and the stock came back with the black electrical tape around it.
i appreciate any and all feedback. I am glad to have found this site.

should we assume there is a broken stock under the tape? how bad is it?

i would expect there is some crack or something under the tape. I just remember how mad my dad was when the person that borrowed it brought it back. i have never removed the tape. It doesn't seem to have any sharp edges and i have no idea how bad it is.

Bill,

If there are no missing shards of wood, there are places that will repair it in such a way that it will be stronger than it was when new and be practically invisible to the eye. If you decide to keep it that may be something to consider.
