If the gun would happen to be legit(big if)-it would probably be one of the best Parkers out there.
They say it’s validated blah blah blah yet they don’t see fit to even show the serial number ?

POR means you aren’t buying this one without first making a trip for a hands on inspection. Personal Observation Required.

To me it means the price is so far out of the realm of possibility that they want to get you on the phone so they can give you the “good ole boy” used car salesman spiel . But maybe that’s just the cynic in me

Lots of sellers on the 'net don't like to post the whole serial number. Not necessarily a problem for me.

When I first started using GB I wouldn’t allow the serial number to be seen . But I got over that pretty quick . Now when I list a gun I make sure the serial number on the water table , the trigger guard , the barrels and the forearm . Cuts down on a good many questions . I’ll say this , if I’m personally thinking about buying and they won’t divulge the serial number it’s a deal breaker .

A few years ago Remington Arms commissioned Galazan to build a small few of AAHE 28 ga and 410 bore. The fact that Remington purchased Parker in the 1930’s, Remington and Galazan maintain these guns are a continuation of the Parker Gun production. The asking price for several years was $50,000.00. Remington entered Bankruptcy and a few of these guns were sold at auction for somewhere in the low to mid $30,000 range.

My quess is that this is one of those guns. Obviously I don’t Know, just Think.
