Default Parker Trap

Well , a neat Parker Brothers Gun popped up for sale locally a while back ,I managed to keep my mouth shut about it while I gave it a bit of thought and a few days ago I decided to go ahead and add it to the clutch ! Thought maybe you Trap Shooters might like to take a look ! The gun has been refinished and has Rem. Repair codes " KTT3 " on her ,I am suspecting Factory refinish , it is how it left the Factory according to the Parker Serialization Book and is listed in " The Parker Story " under Original Ventilated Rib Guns " Serial # 227103 ! Take a look and maybe you fellows with Factory Refinished Guns could give an opinion ! The Gun has 32" Barrels ,Beaver tail Forend with correct lug and through bolt ,Single Select Trigger , Ejectors and Ventilated Rib !

It bears many of the features of a DelGrego refinished gun.

That is really a nice gun. I did notice in one of the side views that there seem to be a lot of gold hues in the case coloring.

Beautiful GHE Trap configured gun. What are the stock dimensions Russ? The finish seems to be late Remington as the CC is more fluid as opposed to the DelGreco wavy style. A great find, use it in good health. Jim

Nice gun Russ congrats. I like your forearm much better than the one on my DHE 30 inch trap. Mine is the big flat style it looks like it got run over and squished you'll have fun with that one.

Brian ,Thank You for your thoughts ,at first ,I thought the same but after looking it over closely , I just don't think DelGrego ,I spoke with Larry this morning and he doesn't have it as being one of their refinished guns although he says it still could be there are a lot of records ! I am Thinking Remington like Jim although I doubt we can ever really prove it !
