Default Pictures of muzzles on vent rib barrels

Hi I been lurking here for awhile and are there any pictures of muzzles with vent rib barrels?I am in process of buying a 16 gauge Vulcan with factory vent rib with splinter forend and double triggers with long tang factory straight grip stock.Were there any differences in say a field vent rib and trap? It has the half diamond on ramp of rib and single metal bead front sight. Thanks in advance,Bobby

You are a lucky guy to have such a rare gun. Any questions, please ask. Lower grade and smallbore vent rib guns are very seldom encountered. I took pity on one of our members and gifted him a very rare VHE vent rib trap with serious provenance, just because I like him. Some day, he will return the favor.

Back in the late 60s Hershel C. had a 20 ga st grip VHE with beavertail and 32 inch vent rib barrels and I should have bought it! Bobby

Does the seller have a PGCA letter on the gun? If not you can give us the serial number & someone can look to see if it's in the serialization book to see what options it has listed from the factory.

George, I only gift my rare Parkers to those who are "In Need". The member who benefitted from the VHE Trap gift was definitely in need of a Parker that could pull down the tall ones.
