VH 16 gauge on “0” frame assistance

[Edward Malovic]

Hello, I am a new forum user. I just joined the group as I just purchased my first Parker. It is a VH 16 gauge with a size 0 frame. I bought it as a wall hangar because it has a busted forearm. I don’t have much into this one so I am looking into repair options. First, this thing is beautiful, someone before me put a lot of money into this 1901 gun to make it like this. I have an itch to shoot this one. It locks up really tight. The one picture shows the break on the forearm. It goes thru. It was however glued back together. How they did it I don’t know but here we are. So questions are, is it worth sending out for repair or possible replacement? Can anyone tell me by looking at it who might have done the work? It is superb wood and metal finishes and the wood fitment is equally superb. The stock is very nicely figured, not your ordinary stock. Any input is appreciated, I am sure there will be more discussion on this. Thank you! Ed
