Description:

This gun was completed as one of just 1,088 built in this combination of gauge, grade, barrel length, and barrel steel (Parker Special and Remington Chrome-moly combined) with fewer having ejectors according to page 279 of "The Parker Story" by Gunther, Mullins, Parker, Price, and Cote. The gun was built with blued barrels featuring a single bead sight on the matted concave solid rib which is correctly unmarked, light engraving at the breech, chokes marked "MOD"/"FULL", an "LJ" Remington date code, and chambers marked 2 3/4 inches with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to a casehardened boxlock action displaying GH engraving consisting of oval game bird scenes on the left, right, and underside surrounded by light scrollwork and line borders and featuring double triggers and a tang mounted automatic safety. The gun is fitted with an attractively figured and multi-point checkered splinter forend with lightly engraved fittings and remarked serial number as well as a pistol grip stock with factory hard rubber grip cap, silver inscription shield marked "C.J.H.", and a checkered bare butt. Barrel and stock measurements (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech .730/.730 inches; choke constriction .015/.030 inches; minimum wall thickness .028/.029 inches; 1 3/4 inch drop at comb; 2 13/16 inch drop at heel; 15 inch length of pull; weight 7 lbs. 7 oz.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as professionally refurbished, retaining 98% original blue finish with an area of spotting on the right barrel, 98% case colors, some minor spotting on the action, a few minor handling marks, and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. Mechanically excellent.
