Parker 8 Gauge Hammer SxS
I collect large bore market/punt guns and have just purchased an 8 Gauge that happens to be my first Parker! I'm looking for info about the gun, how many were made, and your thoughts about the interesting factory records behind the gun. A friend called and the gun letters as an 8 Gauge, 38" bbls, hammerless, straight grip. Only problem is the gun is a hammer gun with a pistol grip and 34" bbls!?! As you can see by the pics it is a honest used gun and completely original. The serial number is 56757, matching throughout on the gun, and frame size is marked 7. The water table is marked 2 (GH grade?) The gun has Damascus barrels and is a toplever. Its a very nice gun overall with good bores, no cracks/chips in the wood, and looks to be 100% original. Any info would be appreciated! Thanks, -Dean
