Like Dave said some pictures and if you could scan the documents you have that would help identification. Sounds like a nice gun.

OK here are some "rookie" pictures that I just took of the Parker. I really appreciate you all helping me with this. I am a pistol and rifle shooter and collector, but I have only this one Shotgun - this Parker I inherited.

Lindsay, without quality pictures of the receiver, receiver water table, barrel and barrel flats, and stock, we can't really give you an estimate. VHE 12 gauges with 26" barrels are very commonly found. Condition will determine value. If it's on a 1/2 frame, the value goes up plus vent rib, single trigger, and beavertail forend also increase the value. The frame size is found stamped on the barrel lug.

A 26 inch cyl and mod barrel is pretty desireable. I think alot of people would like that gun including myself. Congrats on a nice parker.

Lindsey: Parker made frame sizes from 0000 all the way to eight. 0000 being found on a few of the very lightest .410s and eight on the very heaviest eight gauge guns. The number denotes the actual size of the gun's frame.
Best Regards, George |

Lindsay, to answer your question on the size of the 1/2 12ga frame, the distance between the firing pins was 1 1/16", the same as the 1 frame. The distance across the breech was 1 5/8", the same as a 0 frame. The distance across the hinge was 1 1/2", the same for frame sizes 0/00/000. The size of a 1 frame was 1 5/8". The height of the standing breech was 1 5/32", the 0/00/000 was 1 3/32" and the 1 frame was 1 3/16".
As you can see, the receiver had dimensions of a mixture of 1 and 0 frames. This made the gun lighter than most 12ga guns. There is a link found on the PGCA home page under FAQ's that has some more info on frame sizes. |
