Question

Unidentified Parker single barrel muzzle loader

I have recently came into possession of an old Parker single barrel muzzle loader. It's not too ornate for a Parker, but in fairly good condition. It has a wedding band on the barrel and is partially octagonal. Is there anyone who might help me identify and date this weapon?

It would have no association to Parker Bros of Meriden, CT.

Mr. Page, can you post a few pictures of your “Parker”?
Only then can we help identify it.

I wonder if it could be a Parker’s Snow 1861 musket.

I wonder if the OP is THE Jimmy Page, lead guitarist for Led Zeppelin?
