Parker Reproductions are for those who love the idea of a modern technology gun that is distinctly Parker. Faithful to the original design, the workmanship is impeccable, and the guns retain the dependability and handling characteristics so loved by owners of original vintage Parkers. Made for a few short years, there are a small number of 28ga. AS NEW PARKER DHE reproductions in existence. Most have been carried and used, as was their intent, and show considerable wear and tear. This example, sn28-02576 made around 1989, is AS NEW, WITH 100% METAL FINISHES, 99.5% WOOD FINISH, AND COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL LEATHER CASE, SNAP CAPS, OIL BOTTLE, EBONY CLEANING ROD, CLEANING JAGS, SLIPCOVER, ORIGINAL SHIPPING BOXES, ALL IN NEW AND IN SUPERB CONDITION. The few “as new and unfired" guns available for sale demand a premium, as there are so few remaining in the world. MOST DO NOT HAVE ALL THE GOODIES THAT GO WITH THIS GUN, VALUED AT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. This Parker Reproduction is an investment grade firearm that can be used and enjoyed for decades to come. It has been fired, though evidence shows only a few times, so you won’t feel guilty taking this one out in the field or to the clays course. And with the very desirable 28ga., English style stock, splinter forend, and single selective trigger, it will always be a desirable gun and will continue to grow in value as you enjoy it use. The full list of specifications is shown in the tables below. Incredibly, this gun weighs only 5lbs. 7oz. on its “00” frame and balances perfectly between the hands. Examine the photos closely and you will see the best value on the internet for a like gun. With the handy 26” barrels and IC/M chokes, this gun is set for field and sporting clay scenarios anywhere in the country. We are offering this gun at a very reasonable price. Distinctly as new, gorgeous wood, and one of the lightest I have seen. Treat yourself to a classic upland gun…you will never regret owning a Parker DHE 28 gauge! Thanks for looking!
