Default Parker SB 5

I have located a Parker Grade 5 SB that is in incredible original condition. It shows very little use, has about 95% (or more) bright case color, 98% blue, screws have never been turned, etc. Excellent engraving. Barrel is about perfect with original finish and is on face and tight. Ventilated rib. Wood is original showing very little wear and fancy checkering is sharp. Overall, the gun rates excellent +. I have never seen a 80 year old gun with such high condition. I've got a number of SXS Parkers but this is a new one to me--I know nothing about the value of these guns. Any thoughts would be appreciated. This is one heck of a high grade gun.

There were very few grade 5 SBT Parkers produced.

Like Dave said "If it is as you say it is, run don't walk to buy it now" & don't worry too much if he won't come off the price too much.

Just My Humble Opinion.....George
