Righthand side of the frame looks pretty rough. What a shame that it's been cut too. Still, a nice little woods gun.

I guess you're referring to the forcing cones. It gets pretty thick in that area on a #0 frame 28. Sold for $6450. Not a bad gun for that price. I used an expensive Clymer combination rim cutter/2 3/4" chamber reamer/forcing cone cutter into two 2 1/2" chambered, totally original 28 gauge Parkers a couple of years ago. Oddly, the tool didn't cut any metal other than the rim recesses. To see if I was imagining things, I ran the same reamer into my own 28 gauge 2 1/2" original chambered gun. Again, no chips. I don't know what conclusion to draw except that that Clymer reamer was very conservative in its dimensions. Just as well since all I really wanted was for the shells to fit in the gun.

I saw this gun in person. Barrel,frame,rib matting all deeply pitted. Screws buggered on bottom of reciever. Trigger plate does not fit well to reciever, doesn't look to be original to gun. Wood looks like drift wood washed up on a beach. Sling swivels in stock and barrel. Bores pitted and show roughness. Stock cut with old rock hard pad, Barrels 21" long. Gun is locked up will not fire or cock and safety does not work. Who ever gets this one better be have one wish left from his genie in a bottle. The previous owner named this gun "Lucky"

Yup, this is not the gun I was referring to. I was referring to the little sweetheart, gunbroker #276876930 which just sold for $6450.

This is the auction for the 28 ga at issue....which certainly appears to be beyond salvage...
