[David Rios]

I definitely accept all the input and I’m not undermining anyone just with everything we all learn something new everyday no one can be 100% when it comes to firearms. That’s why I am going to take your advise and check that. I’m absorbing all you wonderful people’s input even the firearm expert that I paid for to do the research for me. I’m just going to get the the info from Parker and that will answer a bunch of questions also. Like I said I’m just learning about this particular firearm so I appreciate all the information.

Astounded Brian has not commented. But as he recently commented on a gun of mine, the chekereing borders are not mullered. And , I have a gun from around the same era, with the metal in similar condition to this gun, but my wood is markedly more worn. Although not an expert, if the wood Is original, it is significantly refinished, and re checkered. It does not look correct. And again, there should be a shield (aka medallion) on the top wrist of the stock. it is important to know, that it is no disgrace to own a gun that has been re stocked, because, as one member already said, that is far better than had the gun suffered a broken stock, and the owner disposed of the gun. Photos of the entire gun will provide you with a plethora of info from this group.

I hope the advice you are getting from the "expert" is free. That is about what it is worth. He is not an expert on Parker shotguns.
