Default Just bought my first Parker...

Hi folks - I'm new to the board and need a cool old timer like the one's that got me into hunting many moons ago to lend me a hand. I just bought my first Parker and I want to learn a bit more about the gun. Here's what I know from looking at it:

16 ga
Takes 2 3/4 shells
Serial #124345 - matches on the forend and the receiver
28 inch barrels - uncut
Choked Mod & IC
On the inside of the receiver is a V above the serial number and on the other side is the date May 7 - Oct 8, 1889 - Not sure if that's the date of manufacture or not.

I think it's an O frame maybe a VH but I'm only going by pictures of the other guns I'm finding on the web. No shield in the stock but some VH's I'm finding have it and some don't.

Anything anyone can tell me would be great.
