Parker Serial Number Guide

Kevin Pellegrino · 12-28-2023, 10:23 PM

Hello and thank you for accepting me into the group.
My father in law has 5 Parker shotguns and I’m trying to find a database or hard copy to find information on these guns by their serial numbers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin, welcome aboard. The Patker Number and Serialization book is a great source for identifying what you have.

First thing to do, is make sure you're treating his daughter well

I’m a bit confused on the “20” frame size

Reggie B · 12-29-2023, 07:54 AM

The frame size will not be listed in the serialization book. I am not sure what "20" you are referencing but the frame size will be on the barrel lug. If it is a 20 gauge gun it could be a "0" frame, a "1" frame or even a "2" frame. A one frame 20 gauge is uncommon and a "2" frame 20 gauge is rare.
