#PARKER DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN FOR SALE PLUS#
Overall, this shotgun rates in about Very Good Plus to Fine condition. The screw head slots are lightly tooled but are all serviceable. The barrel set has a few dark spots of oxidation, though overall, we are impressed with the rib matting and markings, especially in protected areas. The metal to metal fit is spot on, the construction is rigid without play in the furniture with the action open or closed. The lower tang was cleaned at some point, though in the distant past, as the metal has a return to a light patina. The bare metal surfaces have a silvered patina and rubbing marks, though the engraved scenes still have crisp features. The receiver and its components appear to have been case colored, some tone is still left on top of the forend bracket and upper tang.
