Description:
Parker (Belgium Mfg.),   ANTIQUE,   side x side hammer shotgun,   16 gauge,   s/n 20629,   gun came with a collection of nice guns,  first thought it was a POS,  upon close examination it's not really as bad as I first thought it was,   resembles the real thing somewhat,   definitely not a cheap-assed hardware store gun,   guess it was a Belgium knockoff imported by someone to try to make people think they were getting a Charles Parker (Parker Bros.),  so much for truth in advertising back then,

Gun is totally tight on face,    third fastener (dollshead),   hammers are very elaborate and nicely done (see photos),    small halfway decent game scenes on both lockplates (see photos),   both hammers work strongly but right firing pin is missing,   gas checks, 
 
Barrels are 30" in length,   extractors,   swamped hand filed rib,   bore is Fair Minus to Poor Plus but I managed to chase the rats out of the shallow  pits inside,   LAMINATED, OF COURSE,   tight on face,    

Stock is Walnut,   Not a crack in the stock anywhere,   14" LOP,   checkering Excellent on buttstock,  worn on forearm, 
  
GUN COULD BE CLEANED UP TO BE A VERY HANSOM OLD WALL HANGER,   SOLD AS COLLECTOR'S ITEM ONLY,  NOT TO BE FIRED,  PURCHASER HAS TO E-MAIL ME THAT HE UNDERSTANDS THAT BEFORE WE WILL SELL IT TO HIM.    DECORATORS, WHERE ARE YOU?  WOULD LOOK GREAT CLEANED UP AND HUNG OVER A FIREPLACE IN A DEN, FAMILY ROOM, OR CABIN,    Retail value $400.00,   Sale priced at $349.00  POSTPAID ANYWHERE IN USA   
We have been in business for over 54 years under the same ownership. We are receiving up to 50 e-mails daily. All buyers are taken on a strict first come-first served basis depending on the date and time we receive their e-mail. We strive to describe all of our sale items accurately and fully and include professional quality photos of each item. We do our best to point out negatives (if any) regarding a sale item. Although we offer a 3-day, no questions asked, return policy it has rarely been used the entire time we have been in business.

The first potential buyer who states that he definitely wants an item gets it. Those having questions who do not commit to purchase in their first inquiry will have their questions answered but may lose the sale if another buyer e-mails after they do and commits to purchase before we can get back to the first inquirer to answer their questions. This happens almost daily and disappoints a lot of people. If you see something you want- commit to buy it. You will not be disappointed.
