Twin G grades
 

Got quite a surprise at a local gun show recently, and thought I’d share it with the Forum. I found a GHE 24” which is a consecutive serial number to another I own. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Congratulations Tom! That is one hell of a nice set. Who would have thought..two 24" guns made back to back! Never say never.

I agree. Beautiful pair. What a way to make your day. Congratulations.

Talk about being at the right place at the right time! That's a neat set, I would bet it's the only one of it's kind.

Would these two Parkers be considered "coach guns" ?
I have never seen a consecutive pair of Parkers let alone two with thier matching rare features. Holy double Yahtzee.

Sweet and lucky find! Think I'd run out and buy a lottery ticket yet while my luck was holding!!:rotf:

Good grief. Where is that gun show?

the adage of birds that flock together stay together must apply to parkers also...youve got the proof.... a very good find.... charlie

incredible - now you will need to take up driven shooting and train a loader.

I hope they get to stay together as a pair from now on

:bowdown:

These consecutive guns are an important find. I love the floor plate picture. The subtle differences in engraving are very interesting. Tom, Is that an Infallable trigger or a Parker single screw?

What is the style of single trigger with the selector on the top like that? The selector location and tag set screw are similar to the A1 Special prototype in Larry Bear's book. But I have not seen anotehr like that until now.

Thanks for all the comments. The guns will stay together as long as I'm the caretaker of the pair. Yes, it is an infallible single trigger and I must say a really neat trigger.

Tom,
Unbelievable! Just figure the odds of that happening. What a cool pair of guns. Enjoy them and please keep them together. Are you coming to Hausmann's in June? I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to see them.

Obviously engraved by the same hand too.

It is rare enough to find consecutively numbered Parkers, let alone two such rare guns in the barrel length department but the fact that both of those guns are in such nice condition... these things just don't happen - someone is smiling on you from on high.

Tom, A member named Glen Hoffecker, who died several years ago, had a 24" GHE that he bought at Julias auction, It was part of his estate did not know where it went, This might be his old gun they did not make many 24" G's Gary

Every body has said it all before I got here but,WOW!

I have to agree with Calvin ! WOW ! I would love to own a nice 24" Barreled Parker ! These are both beautiful guns ! Congratulations !!! Russ

wow
 

Make that a double WOW from me. a pair of WOWs.

Tom: I thought that only the "Limeys" did 'em in pairs. Beautiful Parkers! Congrats!

Best Regards, George
