Don't know why this photo is upside down. Will get some better pics later.

However scant your experience with shotguns is, it sounds like you have the soul of a vintage gun fancier. And, you are fortunate to have a wonderful-sounding legacy side-by-side, enabling you to develop an emergent passion.
If you enjoy plinking at stationary targets with a .22, you surely should try breaking moving targets with that 16-gauge. Take it from me, you can be a pathetic shot and still have a zest for breaking airborne clay targets and downing the occasional live game-bird. Consider joining the Parker Gun Collectors Association, if you have not already done so -- the knowledge to be gained and helpfulness is inestimable.

Unfortunately Michael, the PGCA has no information on your serial number upon which to base a research letter. From the picture your VH looks to be in "un-messed with" condition and it was most likely made with 28" barrels.

That’s a great looking set of guns. I had that same rifle only it had a clip magazine. One thing that works on pics posting correctly is to crop them a little. Take pictures that allow you to crop the sides while enlarging the image. Everyone is thirsty to see more pics of that beautiful Parker.

Thank you all. I currently have two recently broken digital cameras so no way to get more pics yet. Hope to fix that soon.

Mike, was your .22 like this one?
This one belongs to a joint-venture partnership. The other partner feeds me missing parts annually. It's almost back together. We need to enlist a certain "machinist" to manufacture a new take-down thumbscrew. |
