Chuck: If you know a surveyor, like Raimey Ellenburgh, ask him to tell you how many signed Kentucky Long rifle barrels he has encountered that were used to mark property corners. Read the Parker Story and you will see how few of these early Parkers were made and 140 years later how much fewer of them survive. If you're in to cowboy action guns, my suggestion would be to find a JABC or perhaps a Stevens in good condition & cut it down.
BUT SAVE THE PARKER, PLEASE!
Best Regards, George
