WTB, 16 gauge Parker with steel barrels, VH, GH or DH grade, extractors or ejectors.
The following are all MUST HAVE'S:
> all original, no refinish of any kind, moderate hunting wear okay
> #1 frame
> 30 or 32" barrels with excellent bores, no dents, bulges or pitting
> tight chokes, mod or tighter in both barrels
> double triggers
> excellent screw heads, no buggering at all
> good wood with no splits, again hunting wear is okay
> LOP at least 13.75" without pad or 14.5" with pad
> no more than 2-1/2" drop at heel
I realize these are very tight specs but I will pay top $ for the right gun. If you have a gun for sale that does not meet all the above criteria, please do not PM me. If your gun passes all my MUSTS, please send a PM! Thanks Silvers |

I'm still looking for a 16 Parker. Wanted to bump this back up to the top of the list. Silvers |

Hang in there Silvers, sometimes that illusive Parker is just around the next corner. I was surprised when this DHE 16/20 two gauge two barrel set surfaced in an unlikely place. Both barrels are 32" and a true pleasure to shoot.

OG, very nice indeed! Congrats on your find. Actually Foxes are my first love but I'd rather a somewhat larger frame for a 16. Thus my search for a Parker 16 with #1 frame. Silvers |
