Early pidgeon guns were usually made without safeties. Of course Parker, being ever sensitive to customer wants/needs/delights, would supply most requests for customization
I am not familiar with a "12" frame--you sure it is not a 1 1/2?

12 is a gauge mark on some later guns. If you put a magnifier on the lug, you may see a faded frame size marking, likely 1 1/2, but maybe a 2. A no safety Parker is a scarce variation that some of us are searching for.

A warm welcome to you Marty. Some pics of your pawn shop Parker will help answer many of your questions. Some in focus shots of all the markings you see on the gun will be helpful in discussions. Oh, as an Old Hunter knows, you can also shoot better tasting fare than pigeons with it.
Cheers,
Jack
