Default Parker on Guns International

I have been looking at this 20 gauge VHE for a couple weeks, but just can't pull the trigger. (HAHA).Seriously I wish this gun would just sell , because it's not in my budget right now, and I'm gonna end up buying. Reason for my post is what do you guys think of the gun ? Price to high ? Case color a little to bright? Something else you like or dislike? Here's the link , and looking forward to your thoughts.https://www.gunsinternational.com/gu...n_id=102573964

Keep looking. That's a horrible mess.

As Edgar said, keep looking. The stock has an a wood extension, not sure the frame was well prepped prior to the CC, the hinge pin screw slot isn’t horizontal, the frame screws aren’t timed, and the barrels didn’t have any pickup of the engraving done prior to a reblue.

Yes, bad for many reasons. Do not buy this gun. It can't be made right.

Interesting set screw just forward of the barrel lug. Don't recollect seeing that method of repair previously.

Your question should be “what is NOT wrong with it?”.
It likely will not sell. But that does not mean that you should buy it.

Greg, Parkers and patience go together. That gun is one hot mess, and that's just the exterior. Hang tight.... one way better is out there.

That will get old fast. It is far better to educate yourself some on what is a good gun and what is not, then you can decide for yourself.
