At least he had the good sense not to claim it was an upgrade. No fixing that without a ton of work cutting it out and inlaying new wood to checker. That would take a bit of time and effort but could be done. What I worry about is what it might be hiding under all that ugliness.
Those are Glock panels. They do that to old Glock pistol grips to make them slimmer and more tactile.
If this comment was intended to show us your lack of knowledge Jagermeister...Mission Accomplished! But considering that you do not own any double shotguns at all, your comment is hardly surprising.
I've been able to achieve the same effect with a hand drill and 1/8" drill bit but one has to be careful not to go too deep. It takes a lot of time, maybe 10 minutes, to do one side of a Parker; 8 minutes tops for a Fox. Gil
I wonder if this whole travesty started as an attempt to cover up the plug n the right side cheek panel? In an event this Parker could be the base for a nice upland bird gun upgrade - JMO

That's exactly what I was thinking. but then you would still have a Parker.
An otherwise honest shooter quality gun was destroyed by some idiot. Not that the gun still isnt a shooter. But it would be hard to carry that gun and not want to barf everytime you look at it. With an unknown reserve on it, the seller will never move it. I am surprised that anyone has even bid it up as high as it is.
I don't know but a few nights of perusing some auction sites it looks like more people are interested, as in more bids placed not necessarily auctions won, in the Model 21 then the Parker.
The A grade is odd. Clearly marked CE over the A grade stamp. The stock needs to be replaced. Nothing that ugly with that bad of a crack is worth keeping in my gun room. Also the rib looks odd to me. Barrels clearly over polished before the last blue job. Most of the letters are half wiped out. To me it’s a barreled action needing a new stock. Unless you like doing that yourself that’s going to be major money. I loose interest in that type of gun when it gets much over five hundred, six at the most.
ya no keet, you wooda made a good miner...u jes keep chippin away...never stop, never need a rest..,jes encessently diggin yo tunnel to no wares...
Nobody rattled your cage. keith was responding to Jagermeister, not you. Why don't you take your own counsel and keep quiet if you don't have something helpful to add? Remember.................. YOU said that, not I.
