Has anyone seen these type of escutcheons on any Parker lifter? I can't find another example in any of my Parker books. The gun was made in 1875.

No. Very different indeed. Lets see the rest of the gun.

Here are a couple of photos of the gun. I just noticed how different these escutcheons are and wondered how many Parkers had them.

I would expect to see such escutcheons on a high grade such as yours.

That is a stunning gun. Could we see the grip cap?

So you are saying that you have seen this on many other examples?

I dunno Brian, did I actually say that?

Yes Dean, grade 6 as marked on stock underneath the trigger guard and also marked on the barrel flats.
