I don't recall seeing a GH engraved exactly like that one... unusual for sure. Another thing I noticed was the "Parker Bros." engraved boldly inside the oval vignettes on the sides.

I don't think that inner circle is unusual. I think if you look real close you will see it. I've looked at a few G's in TPS and it looks like that inner ring is there. Probably like the circular checked plug found on some skeleton butt plates. Some stand out, some don't due to wear. Here is my 1904 GH. It's got the inner ring.

Had to look close, and the borders not as wide,but my EH 10GA has it as well.

OK Russ, here are a few more. Nothing special about this 2 frame 12ga GH other than it's still has lots of case colors and I don't think the gun's ever been apart. The last picture shows the Kick-Ezz pad I installed. Used Acra Glass dyed black for the widows peak and used a center screw in the pad to draw the pad to the wood. In 10 minutes it's back to original with the DHBP back on.

Well, my motto is "open mouth - insert foot". I guess it's been a really long time since I've looked at any of my G's. An early GH I have has only one engraved circle on the floor plate while three others have two engraved circles but they are considerably closer together than the one in the link - probably about like Chuck's. I had on loan a GHE from 1934 which has the two engraved circles, also close together, and no Parker Bros. engraved anywhere on the gun which may have been the one that caused me to remark that I didn't remember seeing one with "Parker Bros." engraved within the oval vignette.
In the future I'll try to put my mind in gear first. Here are a few pics of my favorite. Case color is faint but covers a lot of surface. The quality of the engraving with a few extra embellishments is what makes this G special to me. This one, by the way, is a 16 ga. 0-frame in very nice condition with great dimensions. . |
