Here's the first gun. I call this on the "Blonde" gun for its color. Its lighter in color than the others. Serial # 109566.

It's not letting me upload the photos easily... And I slathered the gun in Ballistol. Maybe I shouldn't be doing that??? But it literally hasn't seen oil in 25 years..

Give me some comments guys. I need all the info I can get!

Gun number 2 is Serial # 73695. This Gun seems to have been reworked. It has a vent rib barrel on it. On the vent rib it has Simmons Gun Specialties Inc, Olathe Kansas..?? Gun seems to be a 12 GA converted to 28 GA. In fact the next two guns after this are Simmons guns also...

Gun #1 is a VH grade gun that has been restocked, and the receiver has been blued, replacing the original case coloring.

Gun #2 is a puzzle to me. It looks like the original barrels were cut off and the barrels sleeved on (Note the line on the barrels in front of the chambers.) What is the inside diameter of the barrels? A picture of the muzzle end would be helpful

Gun # 2 muzzle...Looks 12 ga to me. This is some sort of 12 to 28 ga conversion. I don't know how well 28 ga shot would pattern coming out of 12 ga barrels though?! I don't know much about shotguns and even less about Parkers thought....

Gun # 3...This is Serial# 101548 (just says 101 on the trigger guard). It is the longer gun on the left in the original photo and has 30" barrels where the other 3 guns are 26" barrels. It is another Simmons gun and has the same sort of lines around the barrels up by the chambers. So another rebuilt gun obviously. This one is still all 12 ga though...
