OK I will fess up I was the one who bought this gun, Just got it back from Brad he freshened it up and am right proud of it. Brad is sending a letter he had a couple people look at the engraving to see who the engraver was for this gun, will comment when I have the letter in hand, He was very famous during this time, so here is the gun was just waiting till I had some good photo's Enjoy

It is funny I was just thinking about that gun about a week or two ago.

She looks incredible.

Those 34" barrels?

That's a wonderful Parker Gary. I would like very much to know who the engraver was as I have one engraved by the same hand I believe.

That's probably the best looking hammer gun I've ever seen. Maybe the best Parker. Brad is a true Master.

I thought those pics looked too good to be taken by you :rotf: His son shot those pictures but no matter that is one beautiful gun. Is there a story behind it Gary, maybe a piece for the Parker pages.

I agree with Eric. Would love to know the story of this gun.

Truly a beautiful piece. Brad does lovely work. I visited his shop a couple years ago and got the full tour through. I have one with him and look forward to seeing the resurrection.
