My 20 ga. came with snap caps, no oil bottle or rods.

How many of you gents actually put oil in those cans?

I have owned many Repros, still do, and I have never put oil in one of the bottles or found oil in a bottle of a gun just purchased.
Its jsut a decorator item!

Do the Repro oil bottle caps have an applicator rod attached?





.

Every oil can that I've seen that had oil in it leaked. You won't catch me putting any oil in any of my oil cans :nono: They are only there to make the case look complete.

My thinking also Greg

Dean, the one bottle I have, has an applicator, albeit metal ?

Snap caps all marked and included.

No cleaning rods in any

My Repro from Gunsunlimited came without oil bottle or snap caps during the closeout. They sent the snap caps soon after like they promised. I bought my oil bottle from Mrs. Shrum at the Nashville Show. It was the last one she had. The proper rods are Parker Hale and can be bought from various vendors. Don't let the metal parts of the rod contact your gun.

I purchased a Parker repro 12 in 1992 from Jack Skeuse. It did not have an oil bottle so I bought one from him. It is marked Parker reproductions, the stopper has single lines Left to right ///// like this and say made in england on the bottom of the bottle. I also read on another site that the guns were lost in a flood in Ringos which is not true. They were stored at one of their facilities in Bound Brook. N.J.

Johnny, you have a wonderful wife!

... which, along with the 'entire' inventory of spare parts, were also lost in a flood.

mine came with the snap caps i got my oil bottle from a gun dealer on the internet my parker repoduction is a DHE 28 ga 28-000903

When you open a Repro case with gun inside and complete with all the accessories it just looks exquisite.

Galazan has original Parker Repoduction snap caps for $60.00 https://connecticutshotgun.co/origin...ion-snap-caps/

Two of my three PR's did not come with an oil bottle so bought two oilers and had the tops engraved. They're not quite like the original but good enough.

My 28 GA did not come with any accessories. It would be nice to have those to complete the set.

None of the Repro's I've ever owned came with snap caps or oil bottles. They all came in their original Emebi cases and canvas covers but with no accessories.

None of my 3 Repros came with oil bottles or snap caps but I was able to buy the snap caps in 20, 28 and 12 from Skeuse in the late '80's along with one engraved oil bottle. Last year I bought a few oil bottles from Galazan and took them to a jeweler and had them engrave the tops like the original that I provided as a sample. They were laser engraved and not as deep engraving as the original but that's ok for me.
