My late father owned one. Him telling me about it is what sparked my interest in Parkers. I do not know the grade, only that it was a gift from his older brother who was a gun nut with some means, and at the right time, since he was born in 1879. Dad was a hunter not a collector and only told me the gun was a 28 ga., was "all engraved" and had Damascus barrels. Unfortunately, this gun was stolen before I was born. Dad did still have his father's CEO Remington which I now own.

Yes, Parker Bros. made a small number of Damascus barreled twenty-eight bore guns. I have one in DHE grade.

A quick talley from The Parker Story shows 57 with Damascus barrels, two with Twist barrels and 4 with Bernard barrels.

Mine is the only known 24" Damascus barreled 28 in any grade. I got kinda lucky the day I bought this one.

Yes, a few years ago but I don't shoot it anymore out of respect for the gun.

I've never taken it hunting and never will. I've only shot three rounds of skeet and two rounds of SC with it... that's it for me.
