Dave,

Nice Parker you have there. Grade 1 most likely. Does it have any checkering on it? Hard to tell by the pictures. If it has no trace of original checkering, it may be an O grade (even though it has engraving on the locks). It looks to be in Fair to Good condition overall. Looks tight and solid. My only concern would be the barrels. Look to be pitted on the outside with little finish showing. How are the bores? 32" is a good length, anything longer than 30" is usually a bit more sought after. The hammer screws are not correct. You can get new replacements from Tom Carter here on the Forum.
