Engraved and Gold Inlaid Parker Brothers AAHE Style Double Barrel Shotgun

Based on the information in "The Parker Gun: An Immortal American Classic" by Larry L. Baer, it states that the AAHE grade Parker Bros. shotguns were the second most expensive shotgun available at that time and sold for $610 in 1922. The barrels feature dual bead sights on a solid matte rib. The breech end of each barrel has a 2 1/2 inch wedge of floral scroll engraving. The barrels are numbered to the gun, feature 2 3/4 inch chambers, ejectors, and are choked modified/improved modified. The action, trigger guard, break lever and forearm hardware are very nicely engraved with fine floral scroll designs. "Parker Bros. is in gold relief on the underside of the action, and the matching gold relief serial number is on the lower tang. The water table is marked with the three-line patent date information on the right side and "AAH" over the serial number and "7" on the left. The barrels are blued. The single trigger is finished in gold as is the selector mounted next to it. The tang mounted automatic safety has a gold "S", and the remaining parts are casehardened. It is mounted with a nicely figured walnut beavertail forearm and high comb straight grip stock with fancy bordered checkering, fleur-de-lis checkered recessed flats, and vented recoil pad. The initial oval has an engraved "SG" monogram. Barrel and stock measurements (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech .747/.746 inches; choke constriction .028/.045 inches; minimum wall thickness .021/.019 inches; 1 1/2 inch drop at comb; 2 inch drop at heel; 14 3/8 inch length of pull; weight 8 lbs 7 oz. This example exemplifies all of the aforementioned information, but is extensively refurbished, possibly by Pachmayr.

ConditionVery fine as professionally refurbished/upgraded. Overall, the metal surfaces and wood have only slight handling marks and retain 99% of the finish and rich case colors. Mechanically excellent.
