Let me just say , if you get a vent rib gun and shoot it well , DO NOT put a price on it if someone asks what’ll you’ll take

Oh I was pretty sure you had more than one . I was speaking of my own recent mistake of putting a price on the one I had .

I think I have posted about this a time or two. When I first got into Parkers around 10 years ago, Puglisi had a Damascus GH with a Damascus Vent Rib. I didn't know enough about Parkers then, and certainly couldn't tell if it was original. added latter at the factory, or aftermarket...but I should have bought that gun and would if I ever saw it again.

I have saved some pictures of 198678, a DHE 12-gauge, 2-frame, with a vent rib nicely engraved with the Parker legend, the reinforced forearm loop, but the frame has the concave area for the dolls head. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of the ramp.

Does the serialization book show it started life as a vent rib gun?

A gun like Dave's will have a concave doll's head, just like a normal solid rib gun. By the way, I own the Damascus GH that Jay Oliver mentions. It is truly a rare gun, Damascus barrels and Damascus vent rib. Neat gun. Original Parker retrofit with concave doll's head.

Come on Bill, we'd even settle for cell phone pictures of that gun.

Just do it.

Bill, I am glad a PGCA member has that gun. I know I would appreciate that Vent Rib Damascus GH more now that I know so much more about Parkers.

If you ever want sell or trade please keep me in mind.
