Identification help needed
 
3 Attachment(s)
I picked this up at an estate sale, I know little to none on the subject but I took a shot in the dark because of the parker name. I can find no serial number on the gun, and the "Parker" stamp but lack of the "Parker Bros" stamp has me a little confused after looking into it a bit. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

Looks like one of the foreign guns made to capitalize on the Parker name. Unfortunately. It’s not a Parker Bros. Someone in here might know the actual make though

It is not a Parker Brothers shotgun, which is the subject of this board.

It’s British, any markings on the top rib of the barrels? Black powder proofs, what are the letters with the crossed sword stamps, is it a crown with BPC?

Erik:

Don't be dissuaded if you do want to acquire a Parker Brothers gun, for field and range use, pride of ownership, and fellowship.

This is the place to come for gratuitous expert advice.

Austin Hogan would have loved that engraving. He was very keen on what he termed as "Looking Back" birds.
