Joe about 3 years ago went to local gun shop that mostly sells black guns and they had on consignment a few old sxs's. One really called to me it was a neat old cap and ball muzzle loading sxs with damascus barrels made in England but could get a name on who made gun. I shoot lefty since left eye dominant and long time ago someone had modified the original stock for a lefty. I really thought it was neat. Everything functioned on the gun but there is no telling about the bores on that gun. They wanted $275 and I said $200 and seller said no. I went back a few weeks later gun still there and the dealer was saying he won't charge em a commission since it was black powder an probably not safe to shoot so no paperwork would need to be generated and if my offer was still good and I said sure. This guy does a lot of traffic and I was only person in 6 months that made a serious offer. He called them and they still said no. He told them on the phone to come get their gun.
BTW $100 for Parker, that is a find.
