Documented rib inscription and original Parker case as well.

Interesting that the bottom of the hang tag indicates to use a 11ga wad in a 12 ga shell. Just another piece of history confirming the overbored barrels of that time period.

What a blast from the past. Show us more of the gun please and your story behind it.

Can we see the rib inscription?

James Palmer 09-29-2025 12:32 PM

Sorry I am traveling so away from the gun until Saturday. Let me see what I have on my phone in a bit.

Rib

What is the grade stamped on the action? (Don't have the book with me). Seems an odd combo of grade and barrel steel for 1885.

Looks to me like a Grade-4 with appropriate Bernard Steel barrels Arthur.

Looks like the rib has the words: Steel Jas Mullen Erinsville Ontario. Is this a picture of another gun instead of a Parker?
