Hammer less Parker value, how to figure?

[Chester Stewart]

I am looking at an old Parker in very good condition. Some of the blueing is wearing around the receiver but not scratched or dinged. Wood is excellent and barrels look good. It is a hammer less shotgun serial#208XXX. Looks like 1924 production. What else do I need to look for to get an approximate value. I am new and really need some help before I lay out the $$$.

Grade, gauge and photos would help a lot.

Photos are paramount.

Sorry it is 12 gauge. I don't have photos yet but can get them. Have no clue on what grade it is. How can I determine that?

Think it is a 30 inch barrel also

To learn the basics, I suggest you go to www.parkerguns.org and check out the links on the left side of that web page. There is a lot of information there that will get you up to speed as fast as possible.

Really, this is like asking the value of a Chevy car made between 1959 thru 1980. Come on we need the full serial number and photos at the least ! What's the condition, etc

OK thanks guys, I will try to get pictures up in the next couple of weeks. I'll work on the home site to try and figure out and learn as much as I can.

The receiver should not be blued if it is stay away . Pictures will tell .
