Default Parker- Barker- ParkerHurst- all in the name indeed

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;7023]As Don Kaas suggests, it is a Belgian gun trading off of the fine Parker Bros. name. I hope he didn't pay a lot for it - it appears to be in rough shape despite the 'dressing-up' it has received. Looks a bit like a wall hanger we had up at the old hunting/fishing/poker derby cabin in MI- This firearm, as shown from the fotos, looks to have a rather severe crack in the wrist/grip area. I might suggest the gentleman who owns this piece read Sherman bell's fine article on such firearms in the Fall Issue of the DGJ page 108 etc.
