Unfired must be some type of term of art since no gun is really "unfired". These days the barrels on new guns have been greased so if it hasn't been removed I guess it's unfired. How did Parker ship guns? Did it coat the barrels with anything? If so and it's still there, then I guess it was "unfired".

Dean Romig HAD an unfired 16ga hammer gun a couple of years ago, then he brought it to the New Years Day fun shoot and left it in the gun rack. He still has a not fired too much 16ga hammer gun.

I seem to recall someone we all know "borrowed" it for awhile

I hope nobody minds that I edited Pete's post to reflect what really happened that day. It never was fired that day or any other day for that matter nor will it ever be while it is in my vigilant posession.

There are a number of people who have examined it and it was in fact, featured alongside Charlie Green's unfired Grade 2 twelve gauge hammer gun in a recent issue of Parker Pages.
