I agree with Edgar, that one would already be on it's way home with me. All I would have to do is come up with a good excuse as I brought into my house.

It would just be a matter of time before one would find some nice damascus barrels for it. I am usually not a recoil pad guy, but on this 2 frame 12, I could live with it.

What a great clays gun it would be...

I would pass on this gun and look for an all original Parker. They're out there.

I decided to pass as soon as I knew the barrels were off of another gun. If it was a $500 gun I would have bought it.

The W.K. in an oval generally begins appearing in the 130xxx serial number range and the Kf barrel steel mark for Vulcan barrels is for sure replaced with the V in circle by the 135xxx range, so that pretty much nails those barrels down to 1905 vintage.

At $500 it would be worth working with. At $1699.95 that is a hard pass.

I agree Dave!
