Default Serial # look up please

Greetings,

A buddy of mine stoped by a gunshop and came accross a gun that I might be interested in. I am just a sucker for single triggers, beaver tails and vent ribs. 235900 I was thinking it might make a nice pigeon gun.
Thanks

It's listed as a VHE , 12 ga. 30" tubes, cap pistol grip #24 for extras... ejectors, single trigger, beaver tail and vent rib. Sounds like a nice one.

Thanks Hammer and Lab. It will be a wrap by noon tomorrow. I have always admired the Parkers at the pigeon shoots but just haven't found one with all the fixings. The beavertail, single trigger and rib just sealed the deal. I just hope my 21's don't get upset with a friend in the safe. I am stoked.

Pigeon shooting is one of those games that gets in your blood and you bleed it. Things have changed since the first shoot I went to was well over 25 years ago. I was just out of college, money was funny and change was strange. I admired all the racks of guns, but it was the SxS's I loved the most.
At one shoot there was a guy Jimmy Pigeon he had an old Parker, vent rib, Miller trigger, beavertail forend. The stock was checker well and the action engraved, I really loved to look at that gun.

The 21's always it did it for me also, and that was the route I took. My main stay also has been a Browning BSS 30" F/F that gun just loved Winchester Super Pigeon loads.

Now there's a new bad boy in the quiver that I have waited a long time to take the plunge.
