Default Parker 10 Ga

I have a Parker 10 Ga that was made in 1884, and I would like to find out the model and/or grade of the gun. Attached are several pictures of it. Any assistance provided is appreciated. Thanks.

could you give us the serial number and a clear close up of the locks

what does it say on the top of the barrel rib?


from the dark pictures - i expect it is an O grade, but better pictures would be helpful

the model is a Top Lever Hammer gun

Thanks for the information. In reply to your question, the Serial Number is 40803, and the top of the barrel says "PARKER BROS MAKERS MERIDEN CONN. TWIST". Also attached are two additional pictures - I hope this helps.

Thanks again.

It looks to be a Quality T (grade 0) gun.

Opps, I see it's a 10ga. therefore it's a Quality R but still a 0 grade gun.

Thanks again. I don't suppose you would have any idea of its value?
