Default American Flag Bunting 16ga Top Action

This is a 16ga top action G grade hammer Parker with damascus barrels in the American Flag Bunting pattern. This Parker is the only example of this particular damascus pattern known to the Parker collecting community.

It has a curved top lever and lightening grooves in the action frame flats. With SN 59,172, it was made in 1890, or after Parker started making hammerless guns in 1889, and during a period when the market was quickly shifting to the new hammerless guns.
