Thanks very much for your observations. Bill Schwarz noted the position of the serial number to me as well, Mr. Dudley. Who would have had access to Parker barrels to do the rebarreling work? Did Parker sell them to individual gunsmiths? I know the Vulcan barrels were made in greater numbers than any other Parker barrels.
The questions are academic only, as I intend to hunt with this gun, but I am trying my best to learn a bit of the history of these guns.
