New memeber with questions
I have recently acquired a Parker hammer gun from a friend who wants to sell it. I would like to purchase it from him but neither of us know what it is worth. It is a 12 gauge with 30 " barrels that appear to be full and full. The info that I have gleaned from this website have allowed me to determine that it is a #2 frame and a G grade or #2 grade. The serial # dates it to 1901. The serial # is 107307. The barrels are marked Damascus. The shotguns is in very good condition with excellent bores and the action is tight. The wood has the original finish with no cracks, chips, gouges etc. There are several small blemishes in the wood but nothing major. The receiver has lost most of the colors on exposed areas but has no rust or pitting, the barrel still shows the Damascus pattern quite well. If I can figure out how to post some pics I will.
I am a gunsmith whose specialty is Ruger single actions and custom rifle work. I know next to nothing about the value of this shotgun but would like to purchase it if I can afford it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
