No forend iron of any kind. The cocking hook must be hung.

That is what I figured. Are they available? are picts or plans available so I can fabricate one ? I'll need trigger guard and safety spring also.

Someone can answer those questions, but it is beyond my depth of knowledge. You can find parker parts on ebay, but fit is tricky on some.

You need to make sure you have all the internal parts as well, plus you are missing some screws.

I will leave it up to some of our more knowledgeable members to answer what you need.

Thanks

The cocking hook is just hung up.

First try closing the gun and than dry firing it. Then try opening it. If it Unhooks then you are there. If not, then you have to do surgery to get the barrels off. Either way the unhooking issue will have to be corrected. It could be a couple different things causing it.

I can help you with most any parts you may need if you want to contact me.

Personally this gun, even at a grade 3, would be a labor of love and would not be financially beneficial. The main question is what condition the barrels are in. If the bores have pitting, I would not try to bring it back.

The cocking mechanism works fine. The left trigger need a little adjustment. Haven't cleaned the barrel to check for pitting yet. Even if I can get it to work with blanks for some of the reenactment it would be great. There is one skit, I am the town blacksmith. There is a gunfight in the street. The bad guys are mostly dead. As the Sheriff and deputies turn and go back towards the jail, one of the bad guys gets up and starts toward them. When he passes me by my anvil I can step out with the shotgun and take him down. The Sheriff turns and gives an appreciative nod.....
