Hi, Billy,
You've already gotten perhaps the best advice on selling which is to become a member and put your nice gun up for sale on the members only site. I see lots of nice guns that are knowledgeably describe by fellow members. You can learn a great deal in a short time on the forum.
As already mentioned, selling to a dealer will mean the dealer, who needs to make a profit, will not be able to give you what the gun might be worth since he has to make a living. However, there are dealers who sell on consignment. I've done this with some long ago (no longer in business), and it works well if you don't overprice your gun in the first place. You can easily find dealers on a google search or on a site like Guns International or Guns America. They should clearly state their terms for consignment. If you check those sites you can pretty quickly tell which dealers know and offer Parkers. Auction houses are also a possibility. Like a dealer, they take their cut in one way or another. GunBroker is yet another option. You should also check them out.
20 gauge Parkers are desirable, especially in good condition (duh, right?). I think it would be worth your while (and money) to become a PGCA member. I'm sure you'd get even more knowledgeable suggestions on your Parker. You might even find you want to keep your Parker!
Good luck.
