Brian,
Nice gun! Definitely let us know when you plan to bring her out to OF. That gold oval looks to be original based on the checking pattern. Carl. |

Carl, John, it is back wrapped up for Christmas, but I will have it out to Old Forge in early January, weather permitting.

Bryan, that is a very nice and somewhat unusual Grade 3 Parker. The engraving and checkering bespeak a higher grade as well as the gold shield and gold grip cap (not usually seen on Parkers lower than Grade 5) but the sculpting of the bolsters (and research letter, of course) tell us it is a Grade 3. A very nice find indeed.

Brian,
Come on unwrap her and let her loose. Back in 2000 my dad bought me a very nice Beretta DT 10 for X mas. I came home early from dental school ( I was about 24 or 25 at the time) and saw a gift under the tree that looked like a gun box. No one was home so I carefully unwrapped it, took out the gun, cleaned off the cosmolean, put it together played with it for an hour or so, cleaned it and wrapped her back up. No one ever knew until I ratted myself out moments after offically opening it on X mas morning. Man was my dad mad. It took at long time before he got over that one. That is a nice gift to give yourself. Happy holidays. |

Is that the 1 frame Lifter that Ivory Beads had on their website?

I thought it looked familiar. Nice gun! I was close to 'pulling the trigger' (sorry) on it when I located my grade 2 16TL hammer.

Brian, The gun is unusual in several ways, A PGCA letter would be well worth the money I believe, It would be nice to know who ordered the gun and to what spec's Gary
