Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Nice job Rick! Looks like a 1 1/2 grade. I had one of those once with 28" F/F chokes (20 gage). Shot a woodcock with it that was way out there, flying down an abandoned rail bed. My buddy thought it over 50 yds, but we didn't step it off. It was a little rough also, but someone wanted to buy it from me and I had no real attachment, so I sold it--that was about 30 yrs ago.

the 1 1/2 grade with leaf engraving was introduced in 1915, the 1919 catalog announced that the grade 1 was upgraded to the 1 1/2 engraving style, and the 1 1/2 was dropped.
this is a 1920 gun based on the serial number list in Walt Snyder's book and the grade is stamped as 1
these are 28" barrels, the chokes are marked 2 and 4 - so mod and full. They seemed to work well on clay birds when I tried it at the club
