Given that anomaly, I would look carefully for more inconsistencies in either the gun or description or both. The "almost impossible to come by" is pure seller's hype; TPS will give you the number of guns in this configuration that records are available for. They are out there.....
Yes, well, but I'm not interested in buying this Parker at all, I was just cruising the net and this muzzle just caught my attention.
