I agree with Dean, people here should show some courtesy and welcome new people to the forum. If the man (or woman) has a gun she's trying to learn more about before she sells it - good for her. That said, if people expect to drop in here get bids for Grandpa's gun with vague descriptions, they are wasting digital space. If you really want to learn something about a gun, post the spec.s, including the serial number, along with some pictures and you'll get more information than you may have wanted, including valuation advice. Lee: give these guys more info, they'll help you. I've learned a lot from this site.

I'll just bow out and let the "gentlemen" take over.
We don't sell guns on here and this was essentially an offer to sell, let's all keep that in mind. DLH P.S. I'm happy as a clam.

Lee,
I am going out on a limb here and say that I am sorry about your Father. For whatever reasn he is no longer the care taker of this Parker. Yor Parker is indeed a 1923 12 gauge PHE with 34" Parker Steel barrels and capped pistol grip. This would be a very desirable Parker depending on condition. Please email the pictures to me and I will be able to post them here this afternoon. hmcollins2@hotmail.com You may not want to keep this Parker, but someone in the family may. You might offer it around to them first. Kindest, Harry |

That was rude! I would like to see people welcomed here not insulted. I run into quite a few people who just need an informed opinion on their Parker and its value. I for one like to help people if I can . David |

Lee,
It appears that Parker only made 5 PH guns with Parker steel barrels in the 34" length. Your gun also has ejectors which may be a one of a kind.

I bet that thing has shot skads of ducks. Someone here could give it a good home. Let's see, who here likes those long 34" barrels?

This is the kind of Parker Destry loves! Nice gun! Hold on to it if you can as family guns have an especial place in the the hearts of Parker collectors. David
