HI Jeff,

Thanks for the link!

I do not think that your gun was made by Parker Brothers in Meriden Connecticut.

1. Notice how the hinge pin is smooth with the action rather than recessed?
2. There is engraving on the bottom of the barrel lugs. Parker lugs are hidden by the trigger plate.
3. The work Laminated on the top rib would be Laminated Steel on a Parker.
4. There should be a Parker Bros. on the side of the locks.

Did anyone else see anything that I missed?

Those locks and head of the stock do however look like our Parker Brothers guns.

Mark
