Default Too Good To Be True ?

Could it be real?
Wouldn't "Possibly unfired" preclude "New in the Box" ?

Looks like a very nice Parker.

$18,500.00 for a 12 ga GH doesnt sound to be to good to be true to me.

More interested in knowing whether this gun could have gone through the CSMC mill.
Thank you

Not surprised at the negative comments about CSMC. I am, however, surprised at only a few comments about the gun.
My question to the doubters; Why would anyone fake a relatively low grade gun?
Seriously, have you nothing better to do than play Doubting Thomas?
It must be sad to think someone pisses in your cheerios every day.

I lack the Parker knowledge to know better.
Thats why I asked.

So Dean, original, great.

The engraving on that gun is spectacular in my opinion. The duck scene on the left side is the best G grade engraving I've ever seen...

I have had generally good dealings with CSMC but I guess others have not. I would not think such a large dealer would fake a gun of this sort. Is it worth the asking price? It is if someone is willing to pay it.
