Sure looks cut to me. Look at how clean the muzzle is.
And the bead is mounted too far back.

Far as I know, it was a one family gun, owned by a couple of farming brothers, and they appear to have used for a number of different tasks beyond shooting their dinner. Last edited by Bill Graham; 04-29-2019 at 05:43 PM.. |

I think the OP explained it. It is cut. End of story. No research required. What a nice gun in original condition. I would not attempt to restore or refinish this gun. The result would be to damage the originality of this gun. "Smoked Parker". I would buy that gun. Not in Serialization Book, but apparently order book information is available, much more interesting than stock book information, which is what is contained in the Serialization Book. A PGCA letter will fill you in.

It will be cleaned up a little, but not refinished. The dents needed to be raised, and I want to be able to see the wood clearly enough to find any cracks if there are some, but that's about it. |
