Your 8 ga Parker will attract a good deal of interest on this forum as it is an interesting and rare arm. Don't sell it unless it means nothing to you. David

John,
I will post some detailed photos rather than the collages. Jack |

Jack: Your wife's 8 gauge Parker hammergun appears to be in extremely fine condition and is a very rare item in any condition. Please follow the above advice and post some clear close ups. You will find a lot of good help and advice here.
Best Regards, George |

Jack,
I hope you have a really good relationship with your wife, because that shooting iron she has inherited makes a terrible mess at close range. Condition is everything and then there is provenance( who owned it) If you go to this website www.pugsguns.com he usually has a couple 8ga guns for price comparison. If it was my gun I would first get a letter on the gun from the PGCA, then I would contact Julias Auction house or Rock island auction house. How did I do Dunkle? Bill

As always, Bill - nicely done....
My thanks to you and all who have posted in this thread or to Jack privately helping him and his wife determine a fair market price for their Parker if it's sold at auction or via another site in the future. Bill - my thanks again! John |

I've bought and sold a few 8 gauges lately.Your gun is worth around $8000 maybe a bit more, maybe a bit less in a private sale if you looking for a real answer rather than polite BS. A similar gun has been on Gunbroker for $9100 unsold for over a month. Lots of people (including Parker people) talk about 8 gauges but few of them are actual checkwriters.Good Luck with it.
