My dad is a big Parker fan and has been collecting for a while.
Recently, he purchased an old SxS muzzle loader percussion cap. The side plates only have the name "Parker" on them and that is about all the markings there are.
He didn't pay a great deal for it, and knows it is only a "wall hanger".
We are curious as to whether or not the gun is actually made by Parker Bros or is a Belgian or English make just of the same name.
Not sure that Parker Bros ever made a muzzle loader.
Thank you for any input.
