Description:
Parker DHE 12 gauge SxS shotgun. An interesting gun!! The Parker Book lists this gun as a DHE 12 ga. with 30” barrels and capped pistol grip stock; so far so good. This gun does have 30” barrels but they are from a VHE and serial numbered 134258; the frame, trigger guard and forearm iron are numbered 148056! So this is a factory DHE that for some reason was fitted with VHE barrels a long time ago AND this gun was originally a double trigger gun and now it has a single selective trigger AND the safety was removed and the slot filled with a brass plug. The barrels have .734 bore diameters, both are choked FULL at .040” and both have nominal wall thicknesses of .030”. With those chokes and no safety and with a single trigger my guess would be that it was built for driven birds. The original stock has a skeleton butt; 13 ½” LOP, 1 5/8” DAC, 2 ¾” DAH and neutral cast. It has been fitted with a very nice looking beavertail forearm. It weighs 8 lbs. 5 oz. There is no finish left on the frame but it has not been buffed, very nice D grade engraving. The barrels have recently been rust blued by Turnbull. For this day and age this Parker might be the perfect vintage sporting clays gun!
