First Parker Bros.
I came into this parker a few weeks ago. It was stored with a Stevens, wraped up in an old hammock in an attic. It's a SxS 12 ga., serial # 13814, grade is xU I think. Damascus barrel, frame o2, weight 528, and it also is stamped pat April 11 1876. I looked up that it was made in 1879. It's got some rust issues inside & out and a few small dents along the sides of the barrels. I didn't notice them until I started cleaning the rust off. I'd like to find out who first purchased it. Do I have a diamond in the rough, or just a wall hanger?
