16 g VH with cheek piece

[Tom Christman]

Hi guys. I came across a 16g VH this week during my travels thru MN that looked pretty nice but what surprised me about this gun was the cheek piece it had on the stock. I have never seen a cheek piece on a Parker before. It did match the forend and the fit was very good. If it was restocked it is a good job and it was done quite a long time ago. Did Parker provide stocks with this feature or has this gun been restocked? This gun had a vent rib.

Also how do I determine frame size on this gun? What frame sizes were available in a 16g VH?

This gun seemed in pretty good shape. It was tight on face with some case coloring remaining and good barrels. As I mentioned, it had a vent rib and the wood was in good shape. Can you give me a rough ballpark figure on a value for this gun?
