New to Parkers

todd allen · 08-25-2011, 05:20 PM

A friend of mine picked up a couple of Parkers, and would like to know the value of his new aquisitions.
The first one is a 32" VHE, SN# 206524, no. 2 frame, with the stock cut off to 13 1/4" lop from the front trigger to the wood.
Here are some pics:

Put a nice pad on the gun and put the floorplate screws in the correct holes and that will be a screaming great Parker. How about the reproduction No Shoc pad that Galazan sells?

The second gun is Parker No. 182110, a 30" VH, 1 1/2 Frame 14 1/4" LOP to a DHBP, 1 5/8" DAC, 2 7/8" DAH IMO an honest, un-touched gun.

He wants me to move these guns for him on Auction Arms. What kind of value would you put on it?

Look at Asking prices for similar guns on all of the auction websites, take an average, subtract 15% and you will move them. Great guns.

Where would you set the reserve on these guns?

If you want to sell do not put a reserve on them. Guns with small issues don't bring big money. Nice original vh's can be gotten for 1000-1500 dollars. Your pictures don't show nice original.

Ditto what David said.
