Superb and Exceedingly Rare Parker DHE 16ga with original Vent Rib
Description: Exceedingly rare gun made on a # 1 frame. Gun made with double triggers, capped pistol grip and splinter forend but very unusual with the original vent rib and the gun is as found today in high original condition. This gun has particularly nice engraving engraving, much better that your average DHE grade gun - this one with a group of Snipe on the bottom of the frame and this is perhaps the only DHE I have seen with this vignette. Scroll and dogs are better than normally found as well as seen in the photos. The capped pistol grip buttstock is fabulously figured American Walnut and terminates with its original Skeleton BP. This is a totally original gun and remains in Excellent all original condition. The barrels retain 80% original blue, thinned from normal hand wear on sides. Action retains approximately 70% original case hardening color, vivid where protected, thinning to gray and silver from normal handling on bottom. Trigger guard retains approximately 40% original blue. Stocks retain over 90% original finish. Checkering is very good. Bores are excellent, brilliant and shiny, mechanics are crisp. THE PARKER STORY indicates that approximately 200 16 gauge DHE's were made with 26" barrels, undoubtedly very few with ventilated rib. Likely less than 2 or 3 others in this configuration ever made! This gun is priced at $16,500 shipped to your FFL. It is a truly a spectacular and rare DHE with great handling qualities and fabulous engraving.
