Edgar and Dean, about 12 yrs ago I dropped of my grandfather's/Dad's 16 ga VH for complete restoration. All new wood to my dimensions, re-case color etc. Dean, I believe you have seen and handled this 16 ga VH some time ago. I'm told that Lawrence sent the metal out for case color via cyanide process. Dean, I seem to recall that after you looked at the gun. that you commented that the colors were the result of a cynanide process. 12 yrs ago my knowledge of Parkers was very limited tho I grew up shooting this VH exclusively. Never studied them. But I did know from talking with Lawrence that he did send his guns out for coloring. Frm whom I do not know and frankly didn't bother inqiring. I was just glad that it was in the hands of a smith with substantial Parker experience.
