Default G’s are Great Guns

I am posting a few GH photos to show how great and what a value they tend to be. They are a common gun, often very nicely done and well kept. They can be found in all configurations and if a person looks enough they can find one that suits them.

Here is a 12 ga, 30”, 2 frame, 7lbs 9oz GHE. Many have nice wood and Damascus barrels. They usually sell on the reasonable side, I suppose this one would be valued $3500 to $4000 but it is not for sale. So if a person is looking for a nice , representative Parker , consider a Damascus G. These are great barrels and competent with about anything a person needs to shoot through it. This one has seen up to 1 1/4 oz 3 1/4 dram pheasant loads.

Many are well used but also well kept. This one has its original dogs head butt plate. A person can inspect the standing breach and the position of the opening lever to get an idea of the amount of wear.

Bruce, My favorite G's have the starburst lock engraving. I own a beautiful 1 frame 12 that swings like a big 16. 1889 manufacture. Hammerless. Great post my friend....
