An early Parker live bird gun usually has one or more of several features. Very few have all the features. Basically, it would be a tight bored 12 gauge with 30 to 34 inch barrels. Features generally unique to the live bird gun include no safety, no extension rib (non ejector gun only), and flat rib. It is quite unusual to see all these features in one gun. However, such guns are out there. Guns without extension ribs are quite scarce, as are flat rib guns.
