Default English stock on Parker

Is any one aware of Parker producing a 20 gauge VH gun with an English stock? It also has a second white bead. Thanks

i would be amazed if there were not many of them made


PS- Just opened the Serialization book to a random page- there were 3 20ga straight stocks on that one page- two were V grades


totally aside to your question- right under a straight 20 was a straight 10 with 34 inch tubes- like to see that one

Good! I bought a very nice one a couple of years ago and have always wondered if the seller was being truthful about it coming from the factory that way. Has excellent case colors and is a great little grouse/woodcock gun. Thanks

give us us the serial number and one of us will check the book and/or see if information is available for a letter

When you say it is not in the book, what does that mean? What does one do in regards to a research letter? Thanks

Here's a cost savings hint or a plug as may decide. You will find it is cheaper to join the PGCA for a year and buy one letter rather than purchase a letter as a non-member. I just ordered another letter a couple nights ago. It is my third letter for a Parker.
