Cow Gun
 

Well while I am doing nothing I thought I would show you the cow gun, it is most unusual in the fact that it is signed by the engraver! which you seldom see, the first photo shows the trigger guard with his name in the right corner on the trigger guard, why the cow who knows? If I have shown this before I apologies, and again they are large so one or two at a time

Wow!:shock:

Just like the chicken gun the engraving is so detailed something you don't see in later guns. These two gun you almost have to take a magnifying glass to so that you can see how fine the detail work is...Beautiful guns

See if I can do it again

double click for enlargements, I would sure like to know why the cow? maybe a dairy farmer?, Well it just adds to the mystic of the Parker Gun never say never! Gary

a dairy cow pointing what seems to be a snipe but maybe a woodcock

there has got to be a story behind that

oh well- as long as her name wasn't Elsie :rolleyes:

Wow Gary, you really can find them! Why a cow? Looks to me to be a bull, maybe it was his prime breeder. As far as the bird, I've shot many a woodcock along the edges of pastures. Keep those beauties coming.

Bulls don't have udders where I come from

Now a days. Not that there's any thing wrong with that

Oops! Missed the udder. Of course the bovine could have been well endowed.:shock:
