Description:
Parker Reproduction DHE 28 Gauge SxS Shotgun

General Specs: Parker, Year 1988, 28 Gauge, 5lbs 9oz / 5lb 7oz, Side by Side
Serial Number: 28-02078
Parker Reproductions are for those who love the idea of owning 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 vintage Parkers. Made for a few short years, there are less than 2000 DHE 28ga. reproductions in existence. Most have been carried and used, as was their intent. This example, sn28-02078 made around 1988 is nearly new, and comes with the original leather case, slip cover, and 28ga. chrome snap caps, and the original manual. In 1991 you could have bought this gun for $2695. Now all on the market exceed $6500 used, and in the high $7000's as new and as a factory two barrel set. The few "new and unfired" sets demand a premium, but do you shoot them? This 2 barrel set represents a versatile Parker Reproduction that is an investment grade firearm that can be used and enjoyed for decades to come. 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.
