Are you sure those barrels are original length, You could just send it my way since I doubt those barrels are original and I’m sure you don’t want it if it’s not original

Sweet lifter there Jay, thanks for sharing,

Stan

An early 0 Frame 20 gauge Lifter!
I will be wandering around all day in stunned amazement after seeing that!
Jay, that's a beauty! Thanks for sharing.

Our favorite Parkers are lifters. We have some great wild turkey recipes, for both the guns and the dinner table.

I can relate to plunking pheasents with the cannons ! But what you did has to be more difficult than what I did . I carried my cannon in a sporting clays cart and walked around a semi graded circle . You had to carry the big boy thru broom sage etc .

Here's a magnificent example of seller's remorse. I owned this beautiful D Lifter 12 gauge on the 1-frame for only 5 or 6 years and to this day I can't remember why I ever sold it... but I wish I hadn't. Magnificent engraving!!

Dean,
That is a magnificent D grade, WOW! That has much more engraving than any of my D Grades, is it a later gun? And that wood, very nice!

Craig,
I don’t know much about the canoe, I thought it was pretty neat, it has a glass top, making it nice to display items on it. I picked that up at a DU Banquet.

Craig,
On carrying the big 8 for pheasant, I guess it makes it easier if you’re young and dumb

Stan, the serial number is 19114 and it was made before the days of rib matting and the doll's head extension. I loved the engraving!

Here's a few more.

Anyone seen a Lifter with a single trigger? I will share more information after I have a look at it.
