Description:
Made in 1918 on a "0" Frame, this gun has more special order features than any other Parker I have handled in recent memory!  It has 28" Acme barrels with a rare factory special order high flat rib and twin ivory beads.  The case hardened action is finely engraved in typical CHE Grade pattern with a rare large goose engraved on the floorplate.  Made with splinter forend, double triggers, auto ejectors, and straight grip buttstock with rare factory original checkered butt.  This gun was also ordered with a rare hinged (articulated) front trigger.  All of the special order features and very detailed stock dimensions are outlined in the PGCA letter that accompanies the gun.  The gun remains as the letter describes, to the "T".  

Overall, the gun remains in excellent condition.  The barrels and action retain nearly all of their early Del Grego restored finishes, which have toned to a very pleasing look.  The stocks are sound and retain nearly all of their finishes, checkering is crisp.  Mechanics are crisp, and bores are brilliant and shiny.  When you shoulder this gun, it screams "dead bird!" with the flat rib and there is no doubt, this gun is a finely tuned shooting machine.  With the combination of special order features, this gun is most certainly unique!

This gun is priced at $13,500 shipped and insured to your FFL.  Please dont hesitate to contact me at (704) 280-2382 with any questions or reasonable offers on this incredibly rare Parker small bore.
