Parker 12ga. “lifter-opening” hammer gun, ca. . Weight: 8 ¾ lbs. Stock Dimensions: 14 ½” LOP. Nicely figured 30” Plain Twist steel barrels with original 2 ½” chambers have excellent bores (.753”/.752”), choked .031”/.032” and with good thick walls (.047”/.048”). Overall this fine gun is very crisp, tight, dead on the face, showing little evidence of use and retains much of the original finish though faded a bit. Original straight-grip stock and splinter forend retain most of the original varnish. Hard to find in this condition.
