This is how it started; a 1919 Hunter Arms Fulton tradename gun, prior to the very classy embellishments. The Manhattan Arms guns were marked "Superior Quality" and "For Nitro Powder"

I know. And I told him that believe me or not, the gun is what it is. A Fulton that someone stamped up as a Parker. For some reason.
He was very nice and thankful to get any info that he could on the gun.

Must have been when they were trying to economize by combining name engraving with grade designation.

Most Parker fakeup guns with logos by cold chisel have been .410 Crescent or similar guns. If you're going the cold chisel route to make a Parker, it might as well be a .410. I have also seen .410 Crescents made into L.C. Smiths, more proper since the Smith is a sidelock like a Crescent.
