I am fortunate to be in a business where I get to handle a lot of fine shotguns! Long barreled small bore Parker 20ga. guns are rarely encountered. This little Parker, sn201786 built in 1923, is 1 of 138 Parker GHE 20's with 30" Parker Steel barrels, 1 of less than 1000 GH Parker 20ga. guns ever made, with only 600 or so with ejectors. It is a delightful little bird gun and an investment quality firearm you can use and enjoy while it increases in value over time. Restored almost 10 years ago and still in near new condition, this is a delightful Parker in hand weighing just 6 1/2lbs. and balanced perfectly 1/8" in front of the hinge pin. The gun is cleaned, inspected, and lubricated inside and out, with action tight on breech face and hinge pin, lever way right of center, perfect screws, sharp clear lettering and engraving, nicely figured wood, all parts original to the gun when shipped. With great stock dimensions and choked IC/M this is a great upland gun or sporting clays gun that will be a joy to shoot and carry.
