Before you do anything, get a research letter on that gun. You may find it was blued at the factory... probably not, but there is always the possibility.

Heff, that is a 'checkered butt'. Sometimes found in the order books referred to as "no butt treatment" or "no butt" but later as "checked butt" or "checkered butt".

And no Safety to boot! I bet it will be an interesting letter.
Nice find!

I'm a fan of 32-34" barrels, I think you found a more than fair deal. Long barrels, straight stock and safety delete are items at the top of my list of desirable criteria!

For whomever was asking, here is a 34" GHE for your consideration. Not as reasonably priced as Brian's deal, but the lesson here is to get them when you can find them!

That price is no surprise, considering the store that has it for sale.

Dean, I only hit the "Thanks" button once, but I would hit it a few more times for your last post if it would work. By the way, I own two Parkers with blued receivers and have no plans to change them.

Wow good catch Dean, I should have looked closer last nite or at least put my glasses on. I like it even more now!

I have a GHE with a checkered butt, so I should have known better.
