Hi Tom,

That looks like a nice Parker. It is on the desirable "0" frame as indicated on the barrel lug.

The case colors are cyanide with buffing line at the bottom of the breach balls typical of the DelGregos. Parker Brothers guns were produced with bone charcoal case coloring which produced different colors/patterns. Both processes hardened the external surfaces of the receiver.

The cut barrels take away any collector value. Personally I figure a Parker with cut barrels is worth only half of a similar gun with uncut barrels. Others will certainly have differing opinions.

Since this is a 0 frame 20 gauge it is desirable as a shooter/hunting gun.

If you desire to sell this gun via this forum you must become a member of the PGCA ($40 annually). Sorry but we must reserve some privileges for PGCA members.

Good luck,
Mark

Tom;
Your gun is listed as having 28" barrels when it left the factory. Very nice 20ga. If you become a member of the PGCA you can send for a letter which might give you some more info on this gun. Good luck and sorry to hear about your friend.
