The Parker DHE is a high-grade Parker Brothers side-by-side with a Damascus steel barrel option on pre-WWI guns and steel barrels on later production. The 28-inch 12-gauge configuration was among the most common hunting specifications. The DHE grade features quality case-hardened receivers with decorative scroll and more carefully fitted walnut than the lower VH grade. A significant step up in Parker's grading hierarchy.
