All sound good to me ,the Keels are the rods affixed at the end of the barrels above the bottom rib and below the top rib ! I was referring to the hardened Pad and the missing bead and probably should have a good internal cleaning as most V Grade were well used in the field ! With all of the info. you have described ,I know by your post that you are not attempting to sell the gun but I would think the earlier $600.00 post toward value would sell the gun rather quickly but I would also think much over $900.00 that it would tend to sit a while before it would sell but again ,that is just my opinion ,I would think others would chime in here ! If you follow Gun Brokers "Parker Listings " you will get a very good idea of value ! Best ; Russ
