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..

Thanks for the assistance the serial # is 200505.

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

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

Attempting to upload a link to some pix but they aren't very good just took them eventually will upload. Internet connection a little shoddy tonight.
