I purchased a Parker 16 vh 0 frame back in 2013 and posted several photos. Larry
Delgrego said it was the most original condition Parker that had come into his shop for some time.

It is not a safe queen and has been used for quail, dove, and pheasant. Last year it went to South Dakota with me. The guide asked if anyone was hunting with anything other that a 12 gauge and I indicated I was using a 16 gauge with an ounce of #6s.
He told me in front of the other shooters " this is South Dakota and that gun and load ain't gonna cut it." After the 9th pheasant I dropped after 9 shots he quietly walked over to me and said he was wrong. It is one of my favorite game guns and would not sell It for a kreighoff.
