Well Randy based on my extremely limited knowledge of Parker guns I can only go by what the seller told me. I looked at the gun in hand a couple weeks ago at a gun show.The gun is in very nice condition. It locks up solid as a vault, nothing is loose anywhere. Barrels are 30" choked F/F. I suspect as does fellow I'd consider an expert on them that the the English styled stock is a restock and not original. I was told it was original and had been refinished but I suspect not. The forend I would say is still original. The seller claims the barrels are in their original blue from the factory but that the trigger guard was "hot blued" at some point and there is very little colour left of the original CCH finish on the receiver. The serial # dates it to 1911 according to the search function return on this site and the seller says the gun is a #2 graded VH. It is a 12ga listed as 2 3/4" chambers. If nothing else it will be a really nice occasional use "duck gun" which is my intended purpose for it.
