Okay, besides the bulge on the left bbl. Why is this gun not selling? Isn't this like one of a kind?
The bulge is an easy fix and it's in a good place. If there's ever a good spot for a bulge.

I think for the majority of the people out there don't have the inside track as to it's provanance and that coupled with spending almost $15K of discretionary income that may or may not be quite so discretionary at the end of the day.

As I said it's just waiting for you.

Anyone who thinks the gun is not spoken for should try to get G&H to charge their credit card for the cost of the gun. Just saying. That is a pretty good test of sold or not sold, unless you are dealing with Cabela's.

This gun isn't being given the respect it deserves, but, then, there is a lot of stuff for sale out there. My opinion is that using a fat checkbook to build a collection is becoming as boring for the check writers as it has been for those who watch them work.

I think someone really needs to handle it and appreciate it for what it is. Look for whatever flaws there might be and dismiss the gun or fall in love with it and strike a deal. After all, it is a Grade 6 and those are few and far between. Grade 6 hammerless Parkers in the right condition bring $20K and more and I think a hammer gun in equal condition is, in many ways, more charming or at least as desirable as a hammerless. This one won't last much longer in my opinion... somebody will fall in love with her and bring her home with him.

You are right Dean, now if I only had a fat checkbook! Little tlc and what a gun she is. I might have it casecolored and Barrels blacked but only a dream. Gotta love those Hammer Guns.
