What is the price range for a good B and A? I do not recall every seeing one for sale anywhere. I have never seen one other than in pictures. I have only seen 2 C's, mine and another around here although I have seen several for sale. In fact I just missed one I was interested in.

Yes, the SC`s are the ones usually found for sale. You are right about not finding SB and SA guns up for sale. There were not very many produced so pricing could be anywhere from $7000 to $10000 ? for a `B grade and $10000 to $15000 for an `A grade. I guess it depends on your passion of Parker Single Barrel Trap guns.

Regards,
RD

Randy, thanks for the price estimates on higher grade Parker singles. However, most single traps are a bit grey and often don't have all their wood and are at least partially refinished. When I add an A to my collection, I hope it is in a price range a bit lower than you have mentioned.

Titanic Steel. I don't know exactly when the Acme Steel started. Our Research Committee would know from entries in the 1917 and 1918 stock books. The order books will not give up that information.

Default 1917 Parker Single Barrel Trap

Bill, yes I would also hope to find an A grade for less than my estimate. It is on the high side. But due to their rarity a nice one may bring that price range. Sure I would like to add one in the $9K to 10 range. Did you see the one where they were asking $16000

Best Regards,
RD

$16,000 is a bit of a stretch.

Chuck/Bill et al. ,

I always thought it was the early (1917) guns that had the access screw on top of the frame? Would be interesting to pin down the ser.# range when that feature was introduced/curtailed.

Regards,

Will Letterman
