Default Ken Hurst Engraved Parker
This Parker started life as a VH 16 gauge on a 0 frame. I think the engraving artistry is spectacular. Happy Easter!

Yikes! Now that's a beautiful gun, Dean. And a 16!

Sure is nice to see the work of someone who is this talented. It is not easy to get a woodcock image just right. Beautiful Parker.

That is way too nice to crash through alder thickets!

Woodcock and grouse- does it get any better? Oh I suppose they could have at least thrown one dog on there!! But I could get over it. Thanks for sharing. I wonder how many hours that took...

Ken Hurst did the higher grade engraving on some of the CPA renditions of the Stevens 44 1/2 rifles . Always thought I’d like one in a Pope schuetzen style with Hurst’s engraving . But unless I’m mistaken Mr. Hurst is no longer with us . RIP 🙏🏻

Garry,
It is a straight grip, 2 trigger, weighing 5/15 with 28" barrels. 15" LOP. Sounds like it may fit you........??

Beautiful gun Dean, grouse and woodcock, and the backround is so detailed! Did Ken Hurst sign his work?
Happy Easter!
