Default Parker VH 242242

I originally posted some information on this gun in the New Members section and in another members thread, there has been some recent discussion so I felt it would be best to start it's own thread.

I have a Parker VH 12 ga that's been in the family since the early '70's. The Parker was a Christmas gift to my father who passed away in 2001. I've been the caretaker of the gun for about 30 years.

Overall the gun appears to be in decent condition. The wood is original though the rear 'wings' of the beavertail have a fracture line on one side and a repaired fracture line and shaped filler on the other side. Based on the beavertail design I'm guessing that is a somewhat common issue?

A previous owner installed a custom adjustable pad though I'm not certain if the length of pull was altered, LOP from trigger face to the end the stock, not the pad is 13-1/8".

The right barrel ejector appears to have an issue as the 'strikers' in forearm do not align evenly when cocked.

Here's a few pictures:
