steel barreled hammer guns
my research indicates that at least 35 hammer guns were originally manufactured by Parker Bros. with fluid steel barrels.
The earliest that I have found is 84749 (1896) and the latest being 208332 (1924) |

Wow! Thirty Five! That's... As rare as hen's teeth. I guess I'll never own one of those. Even if I can find one, they probably are prohibitively expensive. Still, it's nice to know about. |

Rare like rocking horse droppings.
I have physically seen and handled at least 2 of them that I can remember. A D grade and a AA.

I don't know that it is... You have 1 of 7 known AA hammer guns made and yours was made with fluid steel barrels, Whitworth if I'm not mistaken?... with 2 additional factory-installed sets of Titanic Steel, right? .
