[Larry the Gun Guy]

So, you know you have a first year of production Parker. The Parker Gun Identification & Serialization book lists it on page 66 as a 0 (Zero) grade gun, but obviously with the engraving it has it is a higher grade, as was suggested earlier. The information for this gun does say it was made with 32" barrels and that it is a 12 gauge. If you want some of the issues fixed with this gun, the most obvious choice is the person that chimed in talking about its beauty, Brian Dudley. There are very few people in the US that can do it justice. I would NOT trust others with its care. Good luck and keep us posted; seriously.
