doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Parker Forearm Irons

A fellow called Me wanting to know if I was interested in Parker forearm irons. He has 7 of them in 2, 11/2, & 1 frames.
Some have the auto ejector system. All in excellent condition. Is their any demand for these items? Does anyone know what they are worth?
He also told Me he has other Parker parts but that he has to find some time to locate them.

Dirty Harry

P.S. I know this fellow for quite some time and remember him having a lot of stuff.

Shotgun forearms get lost while hunting and they get separated from guns during maintenance, etc. And a gun is pretty much useless without the forearm, so they absolutely have value.

Pricing depends upon condition, presence of engraving, rarity, and demand of course. Naturally, a small frame forearm iron for a 28 ga or .410 will be much harder to find, and more valuable than one for a more common # 2 frame 12 ga. The best way to get an idea of realistic pricing is to spend some time watching actual sales on Ebay

Thanks Keith for the information. Well I talked to the fellow about the Parker irons, told him not much interest in them, only a few guys out of 1330 clicks.
He told Me about a lot of the other Parker Parts that He made time to look for, but Since no body else seems to be interested in them, I am Not going to list any more
of the stuff He has here on this site. Waste of my time.

Dirty Harry

Harry, I would be interested in any parts he may have

I am also interestedin Parker parts Harry.

harry, I'd be interested...

...in seeing an image of these Parker parts.

To get the very best deal and cooperation from a seller, always start by rudely insulting him...




Then just expect the seller to totally forget every insulting thing you said...



I wonder what combination of mind altering drugs it takes to make this make sense???

Not sure why a fellow wouldn't list this on the Parker site once its up and running. Gonna get a bunch more views then here.

Good question!
Bob Jurewicz

Simple answer to your question, Because all the Parker guys are on this site, while the Parker gun club site is still in Limbo !

Dirty Harry

P.S. '' Maybe not all, but most all the Parker Guys'' are here !
And the 2nd reason is because I WAS banned from the Parker Site because '' I AM PRO American, PRO Constitution & PRO TRUMP '', and I am Not Scare to say it, by the guy who put the Parker gun club Site in Limbo.
Being Banned is called the ''Badge of Honor'' !


''

Willy, so blinded by "Bob hate" the irony is wasted on you.
I wouldn't buy a bucket of water from harry if I was on fire. I have zero interest in his parts.
I don't believe these parts exist but am aching to be proved wrong. Images please.

Hey Guys - The PGCA site is back up and running - YAAAAAY !!

Cash has a heavy case of ''TDS'' And No Amount of drugs will help. You see there is no cure for it.
He tries to hide the fact that He is a liberal, but He is not too good at it.

My spidey sense tells me it is time for a change of subject, and discussion about same:

https://superbikeschool.com/about-us/machinery/bmw-s1000rr/

Let’s discuss the BMW s1000 RR and its industry leading 193 horsepower, with the ability to tune said horsepower to the dynamics of the rider and the track.

Anybody?

Best,
Ted

Doubtful, but, the Parker forearms subject was stale about 3 posts in.

The ultimate bike for those who NEED more than 600cc! The S1000RRs are an amazing piece of machinery for sure. I just got home from Road America up in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. I didn't see nearly as many Classics this year as I normally do up there.
Next Stop Barber Motorsports Park. The museum there is an absolute must do for the motorcycle enthusiast. It would be worth the drive from Mn,

I’m not terribly interested in less than 1 litre Japanese motorcycles. Not sure need enters the picture, but, that is about where I want to be for size. I could deal with a current 750 GSXR, if my neighbor was a chiropractor and could help me off the thing when I got done riding.

Daily use of a serious Sport bike would be a bridge too far, for me. A couple of track days gets it out of my system.

I ride a somewhat classic 37 year old FJ1200. The magazine wags were lamenting that it was the best two up sport touring machine, and, unavailable, new, 20 years after production ended. This is the second version I have owned, I bought a 1991 “Pink Stripe” brand new, and rode it to both coasts from here, before moving onto a 1995 750 GSXR. I rode that bike to both coasts as well, and in Jersey I stopped at the BMW dealer to replace the rain pants I split the crotch on, and when the owner asked, “who’s bike is that out there with Minnesota plates on it”? I got a free T-shirt at his insistence. “Any nutcase that rides a Gixxer to Tom’s River from Minnesota needs to be in one of my T-shits”. That was when you could buy a BMW in Tom’s River, if you were into that kind of thing. He sold me just the bottoms of a set of Hein Gericke rain pants, too. It rained all the way there and back.

Current bike is a 1989, the version closer to “Sport” than “Touring”, aluminum swing arm, etc, and find that the design and I have aged well together.

Thanks for the tip on Barber, never been, but, one day I will.

Ride safe.

Best,
Ted
