Greetings Folks,

[Anthony Gorman]

New Guy here.

I use the same user name on all other boards I frequent.

I was recently gifted an old beat up Parker Double Barrel.
1887 manufacture, matching numbers on the Receiver, Barrel and Forend.
Doing some research found this board.

The wood is beyond salvageable, the barrels i dinged and dirty.
They metal needs to be cleaned and oiled.

But it's mine... :rotf:

Hello Anthony. It is a PH, you have a gun thats seen some action.

My goodness... that poor thing :shock:

[Anthony Gorman]

I don't have the $$$ to restore it as much as I would love to. It'll hang above the bar...

[Dean Romig]

It'll hang above the bar...

A place of honor for any Parker! and that one has certainly earned it's place of rest.

Hello Anthony ,and WELCOME ABOARD !!! Stick around this site long enough and you will contact that little known disease , " PARKERITIS " , it's impossible to get rid of once you get it and I can almost assure you even being a " Perimedik " you won't be able to help yourself ,there is no cure ! You will know the symptoms once you have it ,this Forum will be your first stop in the Morning ,then you will go to Gun Broker ,Search only in " Parker " then on to Guns America etc.etc etc. Cut your grocery bill by half and slide a little extra in your Gun Money Stash ,start saving change ,even selling Blood occasionally ,Oh yes ,you will know ! Russ :bigbye:
