Bought my 28 gauge Parker in 1960 when I was 14, paid $125 or $130 cash for it, I just don't remember. I had been studying Parkers in pawnshops in D.C. and Baltimore for some time. A local Parker peddler invited my father and me to his home to examine a bunch of them some time before I bought my first one. I have bought a couple more double guns since then, still have some.
