You have an "0" grade top lever Parker hammergun. It left the factory with 28" barrels and a capped pistol grip stock. After an inspection by a QUALIFIED gunsmith familiar with vintage doubles, can be shot with low pressure 2 1/2" shells such as RSTs or similar. Good luck and now you have Parker fever. Incurable and costly but worth it.

can you help me with the value of the gun?

By the way Thank you .

Here are some pics of the wood.
If it helps to value the gun.

@$750.00 or so. Condition is everything. Looks like a good solid shooter. As with any vintage shotgun, the barrels are everything. All else can be fixed.

could anyone tell me where I could get the little screw the holds the hammer , one is missing on my gun.
