Hi, my name is David, I am trying to find firing pins and seats for Parker Bros 12 gauge double barrel with external hammers. Patent date Nov. 13, 1866. with matching id numbers of 3422. I tried posting pictures but the file size is to large....that what she said...lol.

I have placed an order with Brian Dudley so my problems should be solved.

Dave,

These little crank shafts tend to give up the ghost after 140 years or so. I have had to change the right firing pin on both my 1881 Lifters. One is a 10 gauge ane the other a 12. You'll love shooting it.

There is a member here who makes those things. I have one of his in my lifter gun. Help. Who is that?

Bill,

I'm pretty sure it is Dave Purnell.

Default Thanks for the reply

I have been shooting this gun for over 30 years and I do love it! I inherited from my father in law .... he cut the barrels down to 18 1/4 inches. I wish he had not done that but it is what it is. I shoot birds for minnow farms and use this gun to dispatch wounded birds up close.

I believe Brian Dudley can supply those firing pins.

Dave no longer makes them, he hasn't for about 4 years now. I took over sale of the lifter firing pins from Dave.

The OP has already purchased a pair of them from me. They are on their way to him currently.
