Manufactured in 1918. Dual bead sights with a matte solid rib marked "PARKER BROS. MAKERS, MERIDEN, CONN. TITANIC STEEL". 2 3/4 inch chambers, choked full/full, with ejectors. The water table has the 1887, 1905 and 1910 patent dates with "DH" over the serial number over "3". The action features a scroll engraving with a hunting dog and "PARKER BROS" in a banner on each side and four pheasants on the underside. The scrollwork extends to the break lever, forearm hardware and trigger guard. The trigger guard has the serial number etched on it. Single trigger with tang mounted automatic safety. Mounted with a checkered walnut splinter forearm (with the serial number inscribed on the bottom as well as the patent date) and straight grip stock with tear drop flats, red vented recoil pad and silver initial oval.

Rating Definition:

Refurbished with 98% blue finish remaining on the barrels and trigger guard. The action and break lever retain 99% bright case colors showing some areas of minor pitting under the finish. The wood remains very good with four minor dents and a scuff on the bottom of the stock, some minor finish loss on the forearm and crisp checkering. The right side firing pin is absent. The markings and engraving are clear.
