Here are pictures of my GH 12 ga, 2 frame 30" barrels. What I like about this gun is that the engraving seems to be cut deeper which really makes it stand out. I question whether the action has ever been taken apart.

I tried to post some photos this evening.I couldn't make it work.I think my files are to large.I can't figure out how to shrink them.They work on gunbroker and other sights.
Any Tips?

Dave,

In the reply box, find the paper clip icon at the top. Click on it and it will bring up a new window. If the pictures are on your hard drive, click on the first browse box, find your picture and click on it. It will insert into "File Name" at the bottom, then click "Open" The file will then be in the top fill in box. Do this for each picture you want shown, then click on "Upload". The file will automatically be resized for you.

I keep getting upload errors also. What am I doing wrong?

While the new software is supposed to resize all photos to an acceptable size, it doesn't, and gives an error message. I still have to resize the photos by emailing it to myself, saving the photo from sent emails, then posting the resized saved one.

What a PITA . . .

Hey John, can ya fix it??

Chuck,

That is as nice a G as I ahve ever seen. The screws look untouched so I doubt anyone has been in there. As for the endgraving, I suspect the reason it looks so deep is because it shows very little wear. It is a beautiful gun, that's for sure.

I found this little Parker at a gun show near Pittsburg a few months ago. It was being sold by the grandson of the original owner. The gun actually looks better in hand than on the photos.It weighs in at 7 lbs. with 30" barrels on a #1 frame.
