Just read the Summer PP. Saw the mentions of Pug's G 16 O frame hammer..Thought I would share my O grade..It is O frame..lightening cuts..F/F...Twist barrels.. I bought this gun in Maine a few years ago..It was ordered by W.C. Hodgkins..300 Broadway..NY. in 1884. Returned to factory 1894 "to make triggers pull harder".According to TPS..One of 328 in 28". Bores are mint..Has never been mistreated...Last picture is through my front door.

Nice gun Jerry. I, too, have an O frame 16 with lightening cuts, 26 in barrels. Also had a set of orphan 20 ga 28 in barrels fitted to it.

Great looking gun. Load some buckshot, and come November…

Jerry,

I had a 16 gauge Parker very similar to yours. Unfortunately it had been mono blocked to 20 gauge. I won the 20 gauge Hammergun event with it at the 2005 Southern. In 2012 at the Fall Southern I handled a 16 gauge like yours and it was light and so handy. I wanted to buy it, but I was selling guns.
