According to The Parker Story, the Damascus barrel Quality VH guns were ten 10-gauges 173953 to 173962 and a 34-inch 12-gauge, serial number 180420.

Are we sure the VH Damascus gun has the original barrels?

I’m thinking of getting it but the finish is all but gone and would need to be restored.
It currently for sale I’m trying to come up with an offer of what I would like to pay for it.
I need to check to see if a letter is available for it.
I think the barrels are original but I will need to check.
The frame size is 1-1/2 no special features and the bib looks like it needs some soldering just at the muzzles.
The stock has god dimensions but needs to be completely refinished/ restored.
Problem is that my guess would be at least $1000 to $1500 to get the barrels and wood restored.
After that the gun would be worth maybe $1500.
Comments good and bad appreciated.
