Near Identical C's
Both 12ga 2 frame Bernard C's. One is an 1883, the other 1889. Both very functional today. The top action hammer was made 7 years after LtCol Custer went to Montana and stayed. Both were made before Teddy Rooseveldt went to North Dakota and conceived of the Rough Riders, before the automobile, before the airplane, back when the west was still wild , and these old Parkers are still used today.
