I finally got a Parker that you can trace back to a person instead of a hardware store. As you can see from the letter it was purchased by Henry Eckhardt. He was born in Germany where he learned his trade and then moved to Sacramento, Ca. He was a gunsmith as well as an engraver. Being a gunsmith I wonder if he cut the bbls to the 27 inches they are now.

Sorry David! But she's a keeper.

Nice find Angel! Looks like it still has a bunch of choke too. I like the flying duck on the underside of the frame... not your common standing grouse we usually see.

Thanks Dean, I think the flying duck is a nice touch. Right now the chokes are Mod/Mod.
