Default For you long barrel fans...

VHE 16...203xxx range...double ivory...32"... F/XF..This gun came from California. It was missing safety,and had a nicely done piece in the slot...Safety was replaced..Dreaded WhiteLine pad hard as a rock... The gun had been used, but not abused. Book show 3 identical guns..consecutive numbers... Breck did the barrels..and I did the wood with Timberluxe..Book says only 216 in this configuration...J..

Dave in California replaced the safety. All the parts were missing..so it was originally a factory safety..

Nice. A favorite of mine, speaking of a 32" 16 that is. May we assume a 1 frame ?

Very nice I’d be pleased if it were in my accumulation ! I’ve got VH 16’s that are 26 , 28 and 30 so the natural progression would be 32 and or 24

ive read 32" 16s are rare , theres one on GI kind of cheap but the seller says the barrel wall thickness has become too thin . A shame for such a unique Parkers .

I know that gun. It's a straight grip...and the right barrel is shot out. Cheaper than Dirt had a 32"..another straight grip. I heard it sold for $3500. It was really nice..As I said..TPS says only 216 made.
