I think I see the stop plate at the back of the rib extension. So likely an ejector gun.
I question the originality of the stock. At the very least the stock lines were altered to the “delgrego style”. The frame has been cyanide case colored, again a typical deal for a delgrego refinish. Other than fthose points, it looks like a good sound DHE 28g. It is worth what you want to pay for it really.

I checked the Parker Gun Identification & Serialization book but your serial # is not listed so no information there. There have been many discussions on how much a refinish may devalue a gun. The case colors of this type are certainly not original and if it is restocked, etc. you need to be careful or you can overload in it quickly but if it is affordable and what you want, just be aware that any resale may not be good if it has been substantially altered. I'm no expert but have made some mistakes already and they can be costly so I can speak a little from experience.

A "D" grade 28 gauge should be a safe place to park some money for a few years, providing you don't pay too much. That looks like a nice one.

A "no safety" 28-gauge.

Nice catch, Dave. I missed that little detail. I wonder if it was ordered by a skeet shooter?

176028 dates to 1917, too early for a skeet gun. More likely plantation quail gun.

Thank you all for your help! I am going to try to get some one on one to get better detailed pictures also one member suggested the barrel could be cut. What is the proper length and what are some areas I should get better pictures of to help you guys out with the valuation. Also would be be worth calling Delgrego and trying to get any info? Thanks in advance Mike Semper Fi!
