Default Parker muzzle loader?

Just saw a double gun with a ram-rod in a glass case at an antique mall. It was a bar in wood hammergun and had Parker engraved on the side. Was this a Parker Bros. gun? Someone with some knowledge please tell me what I was looking at, was this a muzzle loader?

If it was a Parker Bros. shotgun it would have been engraved "Parker Bros." instead of "Parker".

I have seen these "Parker" Muzzle Loaders on Gunbroker for sale often.

Just one more thing to add to the confusion. And clog up search results.
