Gun Watch Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Parker Hale VH Grade 2 £750 12 gauge Shotgun Private Seller Used - Very Good Condition London, Greater London Side by Side, -, -, 30" barrels Description Hi, I'm not using one of my shotguns enough, as have recently got a new sidelock ejector that I love. Parker Bros USA 12 bore BLNE VH grade (marked Vulcan Steel on the barrel) 12 gauge Parker with a size 2 frame from 1911 The bore is bright, with very light pitting. The action is tight, and the gun is nitro proofed. There is frosting and light marks to the furniture and external metal components. There is no case hardening at all, which is not a surprise, but the barrels have 99% of their bluing. The stock is short at 13 1/2”, and has dowel holes in the rear indicative of an old rubber extension that has been removed and plugged. It has marks from handling, cabinet wear etc. I shoot this with a slip on extension and it works great. Non ejector, 2.5" chambers, 30" barrels, can't remember the chokes. This would make a great walked up gun - it handles nicely and is in great condition. This exact same model of gun is listed at £950 on guntrader: https://www.guntrader.uk/guns/shotguns/parker-brothers/side-by-side/12-gauge/150615115036001 I think he is price gouging as these are rare over here (as they were made in the USA) and have collectors value to americans. £750, £800 if you want to part exchange. Or make me an offer, I have had this valued at $1500 for insurance purposes - believe it or not, it's a collectors piece in the USA! £50 for RFD fees if shipping.
