Mark--thank you for the clarifying info. It's just what I was looking for. The rib marking are PARKER BROS. MAKERS MERIDEN. CT. U.S.A. VULCAN STEEL The barrel flats have minimal markings on them. It looks like a patent date that reads PATD. Apr 11 1876. There is a K and the number 3 in two places on the right barrel flat. There is a "+" marking on both barrel flats 3/8 of an inch from each ejector. There are two small punch marks on the left barrel flat 1/2 inch from the front of the flat next to the lug. The rear lug is stamped 12 and 1(frame size). That is it! No HT, HTA or Parker Overload markings. Thanks again for taking the time to respond. See you in Sanford! BD
