DHE 16ga.

Beavertail, single trigger, vent rib.

Some of the nicest D grade engraving and wood i have seen.

Some story behind it, at least as how I acquired it.

One for Josh's found list !

Very nice! Thinking my collecting theme for next year is going to be Remington and late Meriden Parkers

Sweet!! In my dotage I've developed a fascination with the Ilion era Parkers.

That's a really nice one Jeff! I really like Runge's engraving.

That gun is over the top!

That's the kind of wood I dream of.

Great... Special Parker

In my study of these late Remington Parkers, the highest serial number I've recorded is a VHE about 120 higher than the OPs gun and the folks at Ilion put a pretty nice piece of wood on it --
