Smile Back Action Lifters

Were back action lifters with serial numbers below 99 made by Meridan for Parker. And was there actually a 11 gage manufactured?

Can't say about back-action 11-gauge guns but Parker Bros. did make guns in 11-gauge.

Default 11 gauge

Does anybody know what the bore diameter is for an 11 gauge and would it be used in conjunction with a chamber that is smaller than a modern 12ga. Maybe a 12B? The gun I bought is serial number 63.

Serial Number 63 sure is early and a neat find. We would love to see some pictures.

Default Pictures of serial number 63

I will try to attach pictures of this gun. Hopefully this will work. I also will try to make it to the Southern and will bring it with me.

That's a wonderful find Jack and in great condition too.
This should be included in "Parkers Found" in Parker Pages. We have had very few new entries in that listing and I know there have been some unusual guns surfacing recently that deserve to be included.... Number 63 especially!
