Another what do I have question

[cole_bie]

Hey guys my father is looking to sell his old Parker Bros. I went through this website's identification thing and was able to find out some things, however I am not an expert on older guns, so some of it was confusing. I did find out that it was manufactured in 1890. It is a P grade with the extractor option. On the rib it says "parker bros makers. meridian conn. twist." so I guess it is a twist barrel? I was hoping based on the photos you guys might be able to help me decide what I should ask for this thing. Seems to be in pretty good condition and from what I understand the extractor adds some value right? Anyway any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Sorry I know the pictures aren't the best.

Right off the bat, your Dad's Parker is an extractor gun not an ejector.

This is a "P" Grade. From what I can gather from the photos this shotgun has extractors not ejectors.

Oops, had a brain fart there. It is fixed now.

looks like a nice p grade with case colors in hidden areas. how long are the barrels? does it have a dogs head butt plate and how much does it weigh?

It does have a dogs head butt plate and a 30" inch barrel. It weighs 7 pounds 2 ounces.

What gauge is your dad's P grade? Maybe add a picture showing the bottom of the barrel lugs. There should be a number on the rear lug, with an 0, 1, 1 1/2, or2. Maybe even a 3 if it's a 10gauge. Looks to be in pretty nice shape, from what I could see.

On the back as seen in the last two photos there is a 5 and a 1. Hopefully the pictures are decent enough to see the markings. Thanks for the help.

If, in fact, your Dad's Parker is a 12 gauge gun it is a little unusual in that it is on a #1 frame with unstruck barrel weight of 3 pounds 12 ounces. Post the serial number & perhaps we can tell you more.

Best Regards, George

63541 is the serial number and I confirmed it is a 12ga.
