Huge Favor to ask / Looking for a Miricle
Hoping for a Miricle.
I am not a gun guy, but fell in love with a Parker AH/Grade 6 spring of 2019. It was probably one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen, between the Damascus and the engraving. I remember commenting on the engraving because it was so fine, I commented that it would read/show better if it wasn't so fine. The workmanship and detail in every way was amazing. I did not immediately buy it, again not really a gun guy, but I could not get it off my mind. I finally sent payment a few months later to our friend who deals antiques in Bristol, CT. I was supposed to pick up late fall or early winter, but our schedule and the weather didn't allow it. Then 2020, and we did travel at all. Now for the bad part: our friend was out of the shop taking care of his brothers estate, and his business partner mistakenly sold my Parker earlier this year. It was the same time as Brimfield show in CT. The antique store is in Bristol CT. I am hoping one of the good gentlemen or gentleladies of this group may have purchased it and be willing to contact Dick (antiques dealer) or myself to get this beauty headed back to me.. I am heart broken for my loss and am hoping for a Miracle. Thanks in advance! Mike Fedor 517-918-2085 |
Wish you the best of luck in finding ut.
Why hasn’t the seller helped you?? . |
Dean, Antiques dealer is trying his best. Person paid cash and other customers there at the same time did not know him. Still following leads.

Michael, may we presume, it being an AH, that it might have been manufactured after 1899?
If that is the case, it would have been required to be recorded in a transfer of ownership... Did you record the serial number when you fell in love with it? . |
Mike, do you have the serial #, pictures or are there initials on this gun? Reason why I ask it may have been the high grade Parker that once belonged to my great uncle Ernest Burwell. He lived in Bristol, was the President of Bristol Manufacturing Co and an officer in the Bristol Gun Club. This would have been circa 1900-1920. He died in 1945 and didn’t have any sons. No living family members remember what happened to his gun collection, which was substantial. Good luck in tracking this Parker down and please let me know if you’re successful.
