I'm no Parker expert, but I can't see any serial number on the barrel flats or tubes. The dolls head appears to have a sloppy loose fit in the cut out of the receiver. Wonder if it's a piece gun.

JM, it's a piece all right!

Just a question!
So you take a old Parker, slap on some engraving, maybe new wood/blue job and such.......... then all of a sudden it's worth twenty-five grand?

Well....it's probably actually got a lot of work in it - more than just slapping on some engraving...but the problem is the quality is not there, nor does the world reward made-up guns that well.

It's a question of opportunity cost - what other real Parkers could you buy for $25 grand? Plenty of nice ones.

Just for fun I looked at this Parker you mentioned- a high raised vent rib on a bird gun in side-by-side configuration- looks like a debutante coming out party in the Hamptons where the "deb" is wearing a new bowling shirt--The only side by I've see, so far, in my gun show travels that wore a ventilated rib was a Model 21 Trap model with 32" tubes-don't know enough about them to tell if it was factory original or a after-thought, sure have seen my share of 30" Full field grade M12's with Simmons ribs and replacement wood and touted as "genuine M12 Trap Grade guns" so our Buyer Beware applies to all spectrums of the world of shotgunnery I should guess!

I looked at the pictures. Ha ha ha...

Is that a feral chicken on the bottom of the receiver......

Did ya'll look at the Fox and the Uggie he also has for sale? This guy is "out of the box", someone please put him back in!
