Are you sure that is a $200 gun. A full teardrop on the bolster usually indicated a $250 grade?

I thought a teardrop inside the teardrop was the sign of a $250.00 gun.
Absolutely beautiful gun, btw!

Read the article. I think Kevin included the Carter letter in the article. I have done a bunch of Carter research for another Parker. He is one interesting frontier businessman. Imagine what Salt Lake City was like in the 1880s.
