Parker DHE 14 gauge w/ Damascus barrels
I picked up a Parker DHE 14ga in approx 40% original finish. The barrels are un-cut. The stock is missing the grip cap and a recoil pad added years ago. I can find very little info on 14 ga Parkers. Any help would be great. Value in current condition???? Worth a restoration???
Thanks.
Thanks.

PARKER NEVER MADE A 14-PERIOD.
A-DHE- IS A DESIRABLE GUN.
40% OF WHAT?
check the markings on the gun.
Best of luck,

Parker barrels were made in Belgium and England. (i believe) They did make a few odd sized bore guns on special request. You might put this question up over on the Parker Collectors forum. Lets see what they have to say?

Don't listen to the Army. Parker made three models, two hammer type and one hammerless between 1868 and 1940 in 14 gauge. The gauges made were 8,10 12. 14, 16 and 20 gauges for the hammer guns and 8, 10, 12, 14, 20, 28 gauge and .410 bore for the hammerless . Barrel lengths were 28,29, 30, 32, 36,38 and 40 inches and the barrel types were Twist, Damascus, Bernard Steel and steel. 0 -
