Congratulations! That’s a classic upland gun for sure.

The unstruck barrel weight and the measured total weight of the gun make it an unusual Parker if not a "rare" variation. I would like to see the original order for this gun to determine whether it was an accident in manufacture or a special request for a "light as possible" gun.
