My Parker Reproduction 12 Steel Shot Special # 70 ordered from John Allen. I have to thank John for picking out a nice piece of wood. I would like to refinish the stock to obtain an oil finish and enhance the depth of the figure, but not sure whether it would affect the value. Jerry

Larry,

Did you have this re-stocked? If so, where was the work done? One of the prettiest stocks I have ever seen.

This is the way I purchased this gun several years ago from the "World's Foremost Outfitter". They thought it was a reproduction gun.

Just received my 12 Gauge Repro back from my 'smith, after an almost 3 year wait ....

He had a 'few issues' surrounding immigration / sponsorship and personal / business problems, not to mention the finicky demands of my job - single trigger / doubling.

He successfully dealt with the doubling thing and also did a complete ( oil ) refinish of the wood, due to shrinkage of original hard finish ....his words.

Default Nice thread
Greg
I had never looked at this thread until today. Very nice wood fellows.
The Repros are under appreciated. They were by me until my son needed a 28 to shoot.
Thanks for starting this thread.

Wow! That's a dandy Larry!

Looks like the serial number starts with 241...

That gun has great condition and fabulous wood!
