Of course it is not without a few little issues. But that is really a very honest gun for very little money.

No sign of frame cracks at the juncture of the water tables and standing breech.

The " sharp" dent in the barrels around picture 27 or so that appears almost puncture like had me concerned and is possibly why the bidding stopped where it did ! I bought one very similar years ago with the same type of dent and it had a pin hole in it ! If you shone a flashlight down the bore end of the barrel at night with the action closed you would get a pin hole ray of light right out the side of the barrel ! I carried it a couple of years before noticing it ,I always felt blessed !

Likely from an errant shot pellet from a neighboring duck blind.

An Army friend of mine was hunting flooded timber near Memphis. For some reason they set upon opposite sites of the pond. Birds dropped in, and my friend's brother shot at the ducks, forgetting that his bro was on the other side of the pond. Shots covered my friend, but the duck jacket covered everything except his hands. Net result - 8 or 9 pellets in the back of his hand, which he carried until his death last year. Many pellets in the shotgun stock, except where his hand was.

I can't believe it! I take off 10 days for some hand surgery, and completely missed this. I would have given twice that for a few of the parts it has which I need to complete three other projects.

The possible damage shown on picture 27 wouldn't keep me from shooting that gun. Such a deal.

I noticed that it was listed in the Black Powder rifles/Muzzle-loading rifles section. I'm sure that's why it sold for such a low price. It didn't come up in my normal search for Parker Bros.
