Parker Rifles
 
I cannot find a discussion addressing this question, so here goes.

Did Parker Bros. ever produce a double rifle?

Rick Losey 03-08-2019 11:59 AM

not that I ever heard off

not a normal item for any of the big American double gun makers

a Winchester 21 rifle wouldn't surprise me though

model 21 rifles are a For Sure...I have handled a few.

Lefever made a few double rifles.

There's at least one example of a rifle in the Model 21 book. I've never heard of a Parker rifle, except for the Civil War muskets.
That said, I am no expert, and you could never say never, when it comes to Parkers.

Posted earlier today. This Parker was at the Buffalo Bill Museum when we visited Cody about 15 years ago.

I honestly don't remember if it was a combination rifle-shotgun or a double rifle.

The Rifle Barrel Insert Company was, if I remember, in Middlefield, CT. One of our members has one in a 16ga hammer gun.

Not original to Parker, but my dad had a 28ga. engraved by John Warren, with a second set of barrels in 38-55, made by Joe Jurjevic.

Now that is a Parker. I would like to letter that gun.

During what years were they in business?
