Welcome! I echo Gerald's comment -- show us some pictures if you can. Order a letter...and join the PGCA (maybe in reverse order to save money).
I'm envious that you have "family" Parkers. Consider yourself blessed.

152910 isn't in the serialization book, but 911 is. Look on the water table, there should be a single number or letter below the SN, that is the grade.

Hi Jon, Your 20 ga. is a GH, possibly GHE, the E designating Ejectors.
There are factory records available, should you want a Letter on the gun. G grade guns, in smaller bores, are quite desirable. One just sold here, a few days ago,for just south of $9000. If you join the PGCA, you can get your membership, and a letter for less than the price a non-member would pay for just the letter. |

Thanks so much for all the informative responses.
Yes, old thread, I know. Life went a little sideways for me in 2020 and I put the toys away in the safe for a bit. I'll take some pics this week and post them. Will def. join PGCA as well. Thanks, Jon |

Nice GHE 20 gauge! Everybody should have a Parker 20.
