What I see is a low grade Parker that has been blued at some point. The barrels look to be off face even with the fore end on. The wood has had some type of finish applied. Someone that didn't know to use a proper screwdriver has been inside the gun and messed up many of the screws. The top lever is well left of center. Rust and possible pitting in the bores. All of this pretty well kills any real value but it is your fathers gun which to me would make it priceless.

Pretty much you have a wall hanger and maybe that is just the thing to do. Put it on a wall and enjoy the memories that may go with what was once a fine gun.

Actual worth maybe a $100 or two to someone that wants it as a decoration.
