Yes Edgar, I did mix up the 12 with the 16. Too many great lifters to look at!

My guess is that it may be close to the same price of making and finishing a whole new stock, when you consider the precision work involved in fitting the new head to the back half.

Nice barrels Dean!

Gorgeous 16g D lifter with so many features. Not many factory 27” barrels, or hard rubber skeleton butt plates. There must be only a handful of those barrels existing with that Parker made pattern, and you own two of them!
If memory serves, even the grip cap and screw were very unusual.

Dean, That 16 ga lifter is very rare, and what a beautiful gun it is! Glad you have it, and the 12ga has a fine piece of wood, I see why you hesitate to do any thing, I believe that is the best 16 lifter in grade 3 that i have ever seen! congrats thanks for showing the guns, Jeffs gun is beautiful also, Never get tired of seeing guns like those, Gary

Thanks Gary! Coming from “Mr. Parker Hammergun Man” it means a lot!

Even with the crack in the wrist are you able to shoot. I am thinking you might have brought it to Addieville a few years ago? I should have payed more attention.


Just to clarify - The crack in the wrist is on the 12 ga. Lifter. The wood on the 16 ga. Lifter is perfect except foe a tiny chip next to the butt plate.
