I think it said it was a $200 grade which I believe is the forerunner to the B if I'm not mistaken.

Picture of the sidelever. This strikes me as something at the very top of collector/historical interest for those that like Parkers, Lefevers, and the idea of their direct development from muzzleloaders. This conversion as awesome as it is, probably had less time involved than a muzzleloader conversion. Lefever himself likely did the work, right?

By the way, does anyone recall the asking price on this "sold" listing?

Does anyone know the serial number that Parker Bros. assigned to this gun?

The serial number is pictured in the GI listing on the trigger guard.

The gun was sold at Morphys (the year before the morphy/julias merger) for I think around $18k. Don't quote me on that, it may have been less. And it was just a couple years later that the gun showed back up in Vegas being offered by Puglisi with a much higher asking price, to the tune of like $50-60k or something. At least that is what I heard from some people that the gun was offered to.
The gun has been on GI for a while now. And it was not priced. It was “Price on Request” or POR.

I did too. One dog is standing in front of the rock, the other one behind the rock. A regrettable mistake in composition, maybe, considering.

Except that Glahn is known for having depicted humorous situations in his engraving, so...


But wait, that’s not Glahn’s work at all... hmmm... or is it? The serial number puts the gun within the years of his tenure.
