Is this a Parker?

5 Attachment(s)

My stepmom just found this in their basement rafters believe it was my dad’s and he passed away about a year and a half ago. Don’t know anything about it. It appears to be a Parker, but it could be a knock off. Just looking for some help trying to identify if it’s truly a park and what year. It has a 30 inch barrel.

Thanks!

Belgium proof marks

Not a Parker Brothers shotgun

The rib says Belgium as well

Thank you for confirming…. It says C Parker on the side but it looks odd too so I questioned it. Could the barrel have been replaced with a generic but the rest still be?

C. Parker & Co. was a house brand used by Folsom. There is also a Belgian proof mark on the action flats.

There is absolutely nothing about that gun that was made by Parker Bros. of Meriden, CT.
