My newest Parker. Bores are mint, really tight. Really like this one! Opinions valued. Thanks in advance.

Now that's a nice Lifter!
I especially like the fluting of the nose of the comb on some of those early Lifters. I have two D Lifters with that fluting.

I can only see one thing wrong with it----- It's not in my gun safe.
Wish guns like that would show up in my area.

Gun came out of Higganum, Ct. About 20 miles from Meridian. Have ordered a letter for it.

That is a great Lifter Bruce! Is it on a #1 or #2 frame? What's the barrel length?
A beautiful gun...Congratulations!

Nice lifter! I found a similar one in a shop in Amarillo Tx. last year, they claimed it was just a wall hanger and would not sell. I go back in 6 months and they had sold it. It seems like I am never in the right place at the right time to get one.

Michael join the PGCA and you can get a nice lifter in the For Sale forum.

Thank you Chuck Bishop and Mary Bowes. Looks like she stayed close to home. Would like to know more about the owner but not sure where to go. I imagine Parker had some retail walk-in store. Was it part of the factory? Wonder what it looked like in 1881.

It doesn't look that heavy in the pictures. :)
