Kevin thank you for the story and advice it reminds me of the first (and only because I'm only 22) shotgun that I bought. I was scrolling through page after page on GB looking for a model 23 Winchester pigeon grade. My dad always talked about them but had sold his when my parents separated. During the search through the pages I came across an interesting listing of a 28ga field grade 101 skeet gun with 28" barrels it was being sold along with some other quality doubles by a widow for a very reasonable price of 1500. The gun was still in the cardboard box with wax paper wrapped around it when it got to me, unfired.
I will make sure to check out the gun shows and search around online and definitely pickup some Parker literature so I can better understand the history and identification.
