8ga Grade 1 Laminate at small auction
4 Attachment(s)
I have no interest in this gun but thought someone here may.
|
No mention of barrel steel on rib. Also, I looked up the auction and they had good looking 8 ga 3-1/4" Ballard brass cases for sale.

Steve just trying to be helpful pal, that's my nature. If I had a personal interest in the gun of course I would not post a link, but if someone else did so be it no big deal.

The L stamped on the right barrel flat tells us it's Laminated Steel but too late to be Parker-made Laminated. . |

i’m not. I’ve seen a LOT of Lifters and early TA hammer guns with no barrel steel on the top rib.
. |
Thanks Craig!
|
I’ve got a couple of the twist 8 hammer guns one from the 1880’s the other is post 1900 and to be honest I don’t remmember if either has twist on the rib .

I spoke with the owner of the gun. Shells are probably going with the gun in auction. 36" barrels. He is not a gun guy and does not know the chokes. I am getting more pictures if anyone wants to see them. It has been in the same family since new until he bought it 5-6yrs ago. He spoke with RI and they gave him a price range of 7-10k so that is where he is wanting to start at with it.
|
Thanks for the info, I thought about going, but undecided. I thought 5k might buy it.
|
It may. No clue who is watching/calling in.
|
You guys getting more pictures if you could e-mail them to me would appreciate it. I keep a file of all the Parker 8's I encounter. Good luck if you plan to bid. Craig

Its a 5K-6K gun in my opinion.
|
I can't see any clue about how to see what is being offered in this auction or how to bid. Manhattan Kansas isn't exactly in the wilderness, but they sure don't know how to advertise an auction. Do we have to call them on the phone? Help me here.

IMHO 7k is to steep for me, quality pictures won't help, the gun was obviously used a lot by the condition its in. Homely guns sit in the corner while pretty guns get the attention.
|
I think that is high as well. He is going off of what Rock Island told him it would bring. As far as the auction itself goes its a phone auction.

If you know it's a 10% buyer's premium, you know more than I got from the auction ad.
|
Speaking of the 8 gauge brass shells did anyone pickup that box of UMC 8 gauge brass hulls on GB the other day?
|
I listened in and the last I heard the bid was 5,600.00, did it end up going any higher?

I'm happy for the buyer and seller seems like a fair price for all involved. I hope the new buyer is a PGCA member and a future participant in 8 gauge shooting events. It would be neat if the Vintagers and Hausman's followed Mike K's Rock Mtn. with a 8ga side event. 8's are really a hoot to shoot!
|
When I grow up I want an 8 bore gun!! I’ve been a good boy.
|
Mike just write the check, guaranteed you will smile from ear to ear every time you pull the trigger on a 8.

Incidentally I shot 1 3/4 ounce at Hausemanns and The Rock . Think this year I’ll back up regroup and go back to the 1 1/2 ounce load . I’d run out of Clays for 1 1/2 so changed to 1 3/4 with Universal Clays . Supposedly someone bringing me four pounds of Clays so I gotta be set for atleast three years shooting .
