Screws that are not timed and have their slots messed up. From improper tools being used to turn them.

Screws pointing towards the front of the gun. The only screws on a Parker that are not to point that way are the hammer screws which point straight up and down.

Steven, one of the things you will learn is that the majority of 110+ year old Parkers will have a buggered screw or two. Don't let the screws detract from your excitement of the purchase. The screws can be redressed and properly aligned.
What is the current barrel length? They appear about 26 inches, which would likely mean they have been shortened and may have little if any choke left. The serial number is not listed in the serialization book so I can't tell you what length they were originally. |

"What is the current barrel length? They appear about 26 inches,"
I only see pics of the frame, breech end and water table. Anyway congrats on your new Parker. Are you planning on hunting with this gun? |

that gun does look nice, should make a great shooter/hunting gun. Just think what kind of shape you'll be in when you are 110. I'd be proud to own and shoot that one.
