Michael,
Your gun is a PH. It has an extractor and not ejectors. The H is for hammerless and the E is for ejectors. Your gun is too early to have factory ejectors unless they had been returned and retro fitted with them.

Buttstock looks to be a replacement also

Thanks Jeff - That makes perfect sense. I was conflating the terms extractor and ejector. When you mention that the butstock is a replacement, you mean the rubber pad at the end of the stock that softens the kick to one’s shoulder, correct? In other words, the wooden part of the stock seems original?

Also, is it possible that the replacement butstock was installed over the original which may still be under there? Wishful thinking probably...

Do you have a sense of the value of the gun?

Many thanks,

Michael

The stock is not likely original.

Thanks everyone - shame about the stock, but I am happy to know what I have and that the gun is a PH.

If anyone has guidance about value, I would appreciate it. I will request the research letter now.

My Best,

Michael McClung

The whole buttstock (wood) is not original. That style of grip was popular with some trap shooters over the years. But will never be seen on a factory Parker double. Also, the cheeks, comb, checkering is not correct. The head is too full as well.

Our comments about the stock not being original are not neccesarily negative. Aside from a bit of overlap at the receiver and the non original shape of the grip, it appears to be a very attractive stocking job that will not detract from the value of a gun that has no value beyond that of a shooter. As a shooter, you probably have a very nice example of an early hammerless PH. We apparently don't know the frame size of the second set of barrels, but a picture of the bottom of the rear lugs on the two sets will clear that up.
