The Parker Story chart shows no DH 12 gauge hammerless with 34" damascus barrels. However, here is one I was fortunate to purchase for my collection and a 3 frame!!

I have seen at least two different 34” 3 frame 12g DHs with Titanic barrels.

A bit heavy for me but man, thats a sweet looker. Hope you shoot it with a smile on your face.

Craig, I have what was ordered as a 10 pound 12 gauge DH, Damascus barrels, 32", on a #3 frame. However, it was sleeved to 3 1/2" ten gauge magnum by Lefever. It is the best sleeve job I have ever seen. The rib was remarked "Lefever Steel", the only one I have ever seen with that marking. Your gun is astounding.

Craig, it jus' ain't right to post a pic of a 34" barreled 12 ga. Parker with it having the full length of the barrels in the pic! Show us the whole gun!!

Top gun in the picture, looks pretty small compared to a 6 frame 36" 8 gauge.

Wonder what was going on in Grant, Montana, 121 years ago to warrant such a shotgun? At 5800 ft. elevation, 20 miles east of Lemhi Pass (a dirt road) on the Continental Divide, in way southwestern Montana, Grant is only listed as a "populated place" now.

How about the gentleman who ordered a 36" top action eight gauge to shoot buckshot, to be delivered to his address in Death Valley? What was he shooting?

Stan Hillis 07-07-2021 10:54 PM

Thank you, Craig. Pose it with a few 26-28" Parkers and it won't look so outsized.
