The hard labor and incredible skill in being able to repeat the uniformity and beauty in each and every tube just blows me away.

Laminated Steel barrels made by Parker Bros. in those three years of barrel production, 1877, 78, and '79 are probably my favorite. I wonder how many were made with those barrels... we'll never know, I'm sure.
Charlie Herzog has a couple of Parkers with the extremely rare American Flag Bunting and if I am not mistaken, the "Terrell" gun as well. Absolutely amazing!!
