BILL HI RON SCORES NEW NEW MEMBER HERE THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT A PARKER AND BARREL IF I MAY? THE PARKER IS SERIAL NUMBER 84K DATES TO 1895 SHOULD HAVE DAMASCUS BARREL BUT DOES HAVE MATCHED SERIAL NUMBERS STAMPED PARKER GUN WORK? CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT THIS THANKS

Post the serial number and maybe we can get some details on it.

84025

HAS EXTRACTORS , HIGHLY DETAILED WITH CHECKERED STOCK AND DEEP ENGRAVING 28" BARREL I SEE FRAME SIZE 1/2 BARREL CHECKERED ON TOP RIB WHERE IT WOULD SAY PARKER? INSTEAD STAMPED UN DER SIDE PARKER GUN WORK SAME SERIAL NUMBER. WHAT INTEREST ME IS I READ IN ONE OF BILL'S POST ABOUT A REMINGTON REBARRELED DAMACUS "A RATHER UNUSUAL VARIATION OF PARKER HISTORY"

"You seem to have a legitimate Remington rebarrelled Damascus era Parker. I would suspect that Remington trashed all Damascus barrels that were sent in for rebarrel jobs. You have a rather unusual variation of Parker history." I QUOTE THIS FROM AN EARLIER POST IN 08 BY BILL MURPHY...I THINK THIS IS WHAT I HAVE ALSO.

Ron,

Your gun is not listed in the Serilization Book so we can't give you details right now. There are surviving records available if you want to order a research letter.

We can only help you if you provide in focus closeups of your gun to include sides and bottom of the receiver, barrel rib inscription, barrel flats, receiver water table, and stock.

There are details in the FAQ of this site on how to post pictures.

SERIAL NUMBER 84025 PARKER DOUBLE 12 GA WITH MATCHING PARKER GUN WORK BARREL POSTED AN ALBUM THANKS FELLAS

ANYBODY HAVE ANY LUCK?

Ron: I went through your album and your gun looks quite nice. The butt stock is quite attractive. A close up of the extensive engraving on the frame would be nice to look at. I don't know enough about what you have, to give you info, other than it looks nice. A 1/2 frame 12 gauge is not something I have seen, others may have. Should be a nice upland game getter.

I will be interested to hear more from the experts about your gun

Thanks, I am interested also, i know the few collectors that i did show it to were also not sure either.I added a few more pictures of the frame...do you think i am posted in the right area for the experts to find my post?
