Original condition, you never know where they will turn up. This was at my wife's cousins house as we helped her with her parents estate.
The last known Parker with Damascus barrels, circa 1928. A DH 12 with 30 in barrels, and perhaps unfired. I showed it to a few at the Rock Mtn shoot.

That's a beauty Harold. I remember you writing about that gun recently.

Harold I recall that gun, it's a dandy!! Just a great specimen. The pictures will never do that gun justice.

Randy, I am shocked that even with the original box, hang tag, etc that you would own a 16g gun with ONLY minuscule 28” barrels!!
