Parker Bros Cape Gun

Mike, Thank you for posting those. Your gun was one of the most interesting guns to pass through my shop, not for least, the Rifle Barrel Insert Co. barrel. I love seeing bits of Connecticut manufacturing history, and more so when it pertains to the rich past in firearms making. Your insert was only the second I had seen in the flesh, and dispelled the hearsay that said they were only made in large caliber black powder chambering. I probably told you, but I'll say it again; it was a real temptation to take it out back and see what it could do.

Mike,thanks for the pics and Edgar, that's a beautiful case in every way. The only reason it's in your possession is that I know you'll take excellent care of it while in your stewardship. It is truly a great gun.

Thank you and I agree.
