Parker 1903 VH

Chris Lawson · 05-14-2019, 05:51 PM

Hi All - I have a Parker shotgun that I inherited from my Granddad and I was interested in it's value. The stock# is 121280, which places it in 1903 I believe. I think its a VH grade as it has 'Vulcan steel' on the barrel. I shot it a couple of years ago and it was amazing. Seems to be a great condition for it's age. I was hoping that someone could hazard a guestimate value? Pics attached.
Thanks for the help!
Chris

So true, that would be the realized price but unfortunately those prices are hard to find for a gun that has been well used.

Chris, I really like the straight grip on the VH. I'd guess it makes a nice shooter. You may also want to look on Guns International and Gunbroker to get an idea of what Parker shotguns are going for.

Congratulations on inheriting a great old Parker!

I really like the straight grip as well...

I have been watching GB and GI closely for a couple years now and IMHO a lot of the shooter Parkers tend to be way over priced and a lot of those guns have been advertised for a long time without being sold. Just my observation...
