My Parker acquisition this year was a VH, 16Ga, frame #1, 30" barrels, all original to the Parker letter I received. Barrels had little blueing at spots, and a couple of dents, the plastic butt-plate was broken and missing a piece. I sent the gun to Brad Bachelder for a clean & strip, dent removal and barrel re-blueing, butt-plate replacement with an original - period correct (with widow's peak), and refreshment of the checkering. The color case is all original. I am very happy with the results. BillK
