According to the chart on page 279 of "The Parker Story" by Gunther, Mullins, Parker, Price, and Cote, only 439 GH grade shotguns were manufactured with 28 inch "Special Steel" barrels chambered for 20 gauge shells. Single bead sight on the matte concave rib marked PARKER BROTHERS MAKERS MERIDEN CONN. PARKER SPECIAL STEEL", 2 1/2 inch chambers, single extractor, "0" frame size marking, standard markings on the flats, and modified/improved modified chokes. Casehardened receiver with standard "G" grade engraving of game birds with a pair of quail on the right, ducks on the left, and another pair of quail on the underside. With matching engraved trigger guard and break lever, dual triggers, and automatic sliding tang safety. Multi-point checkered splinter forearm with engraved fittings and pistol grip stock with hard rubber Parker Brothers grip cap, blank initial shield, and hard rubber Parker Brother's dog's head buttplate. Length of pull is 14 1/4 inches.

ConditionFine with 95% plus original deep blue finish on the barrels, some small nicks and forearm marks, and handling marks. The receiver has about 50% original muted case colors, mottled brown/gray patina on the balance, well-defined engraving, and a mostly brown patina on the trigger guard with traces of original blue. The wood is good with well-defined checkering, small dings and dents throughout, and most of the original oil finish. Mechanically excellent.
