Manufactured in 1930 as one of only 463 manufactured in this configuration per the chart on page 258 of "The Parker Story" by Gunther, Mullins, Parker, Price, and Cote and even fewer still, only 17%, were made with ejectors making this a very rare and desirable gun. The gun was built with blued steel barrels featuring a single bead sight on the matted concave solid rib which is marked "PARKER BROS. MAKERS. MERIDEN. CT. U.S.A. VULCAN. STEEL", and chambers measured 3 inches with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to a casehardened size 000 frame boxlock action which displays the standard Grade V zig-zag border engraving with "Parker Bros." on either side and features double triggers and a tang mounted automatic safety. The gun is fitted with a lightly figured and multi-point checkered splinter forend and a round knob pistol grip stock with blank silver inscription shield and Parker dog's head buttplate. The above grade, gauge, barrel length, stock type, and ejectors are confirmed on page 585 of "Parker Gun Identification & Serialization" by Price and Fjestad. Barrel and stock measurements (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech .413/.410 inches; choke constriction .016/.014 inches; 1 7/16 inch drop at comb; 2 1/2 inch drop at heel; 13 11/16 inch length of pull; slight cast-on; weight 5 lbs. 4 oz.

Very fine overall, retaining 98% original blue finish on the barrels, original blue on the inside of the triggerguard with the balance a grey/brown patina, and 60% original case colors with the balance a fine silver patina speckled with brown. The metal shows some minor handling evidence, a few scratches at the muzzle, and some very minor freckling. The wood shows some scratches, light pressure marks, and mostly crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. A great chance to own one of these rare American small bore shotguns!
