Extraordinary is an inadequate word to describe that beautiful shotgun.

I don't think that gun would have sold at that price a couple of years ago. It looks like a lot of shotgun for the money, but what do I know?

Joe, According to the "book" it originally had a straight stock. It is sure a beauty. Don't think I've seen an A grade with complete engraving coverage like that. Ray

I have but that one is about the pinnacle of fine deep relief engraving on a Grade 6 Parker.

Sure looks like a restock as that is black walnut in the buttstock.

That gun was at the Fall Southern last weekend and it is spectacular!! Replacement stock by Brad Brachwlder I think. Chuck had several beautiful Parkers there and was willing to "deal".
