Custom Parker SC Grade Single Barrel Trap Shotgun
serial #222319, 12 ga (3''), 32'' Simmons ventilated rib replacement barrel choked a tight full with a bright excellent bore showing some stubborn wad residue at the muzzle and a spot of light oxidation in the chamber. The barrel retains about 95% maker applied blue with spots of mild thinning and light wear, the breach area showing a few hints of previous pinprick pitting beneath the finish. The case-hardened frame and forend iron have toned to an attractive pewter gunmetal patina with some hints of gray freckling and the lovely Parker SC Grade engraving remains crisp with punchdot shading, flowing scroll engraving, and a pigeon finely detailed on the underside of the frame. The checkered capped pistolgrip walnut stock is in near excellent condition with softening of the checkering and a few minor handling marks, and features some attractive grain figure, a semi-gloss finish, an adjustable comb, and an adjustable buttplate with a ventilated Pachmayr recoil pad mounted. The target forend is in very good plus condition with a few light handling marks and some scattered chipped points of checkering; the forend is numbered to the gun. The shotgun locks up tight and on-face with the lever coming to rest at center and is sighted with a Bradley-style white bead front and a small white bead midrib. A quite attractive custom Parker Single Barrel Trap, originally made in 1927. (14B11666-5) {C&R} [Casey Collection] (1200/1800)
