Default Thomas Jackson and Sons

I realize this is a Parker Gun Owners forum, but I am wondering if any of you Oarker owners are familiar with the antique shotguns made by a British gunmaker , Thomas Jackson and Sons. Any information appreciated! Thank you.

What would the time period be, Debbie? Do you have photos of a gun you're researching? I have a reference to a Thomas Jackson, gunmaker, who was based in Maidstone, Kent in 1797.

It is a 20 gauge bottom lever hammer gun. Circa 188.

Here is a link to a double gun forum post with Thomas Jackson and son from around that time period.

Thank you, Bob. It is a beautiful gun but I like to actually shoot my guns and want to be sure it is good quality.
