Inherited a Parker need info
 
What I have so far from your site is that it was made in 1923 with a titanic steel barrel the frame stamp is 2 and the grade stamp is DH I saw a grade page with numerical grades and did not know how to grade it. It has a retreiver on the side and pheasants on the bottom.

Also... If you post the serial number - I'll look it up in the Parker Identification & Serialization book for you... It's a pretty good reference, along with the Parker Story..

Looks like you have a DHE 12 gauge with 32" barrels,sound about right ? also the barrels should be Titanic Steel

Sean Hayes 08-25-2009 09:04 PM

Barrels are definitely titanic steel it is printed on the top rib. Haven't measured the barrel but looks like you are correct.
