Patrick,
Welcome to GB!
I collect Parker's but hunt with the Fox. First, your receiver should be case colored. The nickel or stainless was not available or ever offered. Shed some light upon the barrel length, chokes, stocks, etc.
Your serial number indicates 1915 to 1930. Perhaps the good Captain
has the address for a historical letter. I do not have this information in front of me but is available, perhaps through theee Cody Museum. The 20 is worth more than the 12 but original condition
is everything. Mail me through my profile and I will giive you everything I have available. Welcome, 1010 -
