I will post photos when Santa drops it off. Yes, it was cool that we have two front actions right together. My collection of early early Parkers grew this year too

It is a neat gun. A low grade with decarbonized barrels.
What is interesting is that I also own an earlier serial number, 1219 which is a front action grade two Damascus. A good example of the mixture of action styles by serial number of the very early guns.
If I am not mistaken, mills also owns a front action almost identical to my 1219 that is only a few serial numbers off.
I also recently acquired a T-Latch gun. Number 49. So my small collection of early Parker guns is doing relatively well.
