Manufactured in 1903 with dual white bead sights on the matte concave rib, 2 3/4 inch chambers, and full/full chokes. The barrel rib is marked "PARKER BROS. MAKERS. MERIDEN CONN. DAMASCUS STEEL". The casehardened receiver features standard "D" grade engraving with hunting dogs on the sides and four ducks on the underside. The dog and duck scenes are bordered with fine swirling scroll and "PARKER BROS" in banners on the sides. The water table has the standard two-line patent dates on the right side and "3/116994/D" on the left. Fitted with dual triggers and an automatic tang safety. Mounted on a multi-point checkered splinter forearm and straight grip stock with a vented rubber recoil pad.

Rating Definition:

Very good with a mostly aged gray patina on the barrels, small nicks and dings, strong Damascus patterning, clear rib markings, and faint traces of light surface pitting. The receiver has aged to a mostly silver/gray patina with traces of original case colors in the more protected areas, handling marks, and some light brown spotting. The wood is very good with well defined checkering and small handling marks and bruises on the forend. The buttstock is very good with freshened checkering, added buttpad, new varnish, and small handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
