OVERVIEW

Offered here is a highly desirable Parker Reproduction by Winchester DHE side-by-side shotgun chambered in 20 gauge, serial number 20-01724, featuring 26" barrels, factory Improved Cylinder / Modified chokes, a straight-grip checkered walnut stock, matching checkered splinter forearm, blued barrels, and a beautifully engraved color case-hardened receiver.

The Parker Reproduction project was developed to faithfully recreate the classic Parker shotgun in a modern production setting. These guns were produced in Japan by Olin-Kodensha during the 1980s and imported under the Winchester name. The 20-gauge DHE became one of the best-known configurations in the line and remains especially desirable among shooters and collectors who appreciate traditional Parker handling and styling.

This example has a particularly attractive configuration with 26" barrels, Improved Cylinder / Modified chokes, straight English-style grip, figured walnut, vivid color case-hardened receiver, and traditional DHE-style engraving.

The shotgun is accompanied by a fitted leather trunk case with an outer zippered protective bag, adding considerably to the presentation and collector appeal.
