Hammer Parker with 2 serial numbers
New to the world of Parkers and need some advise. Recently purchased a Parker plain twist 10 G. Barrels in good shape marked with T and 14 with small 5 point star near the 14 mark. Plain wood stock showing signs of use with one small crack and some scratches. Solid metal butt plate. Stock has been marked with a circular stamp at some point in it's life but it is too faded to read.
Appears to have been assembled from two different Parkers though the serial numbers are very close. Stock is 9877 and Barrel is 9714. Is this common?Needs some gunsmith work as the hammers are not functional. Is this because of the two different serial numbers? Or did I just sink too much money into a wall hanger? Any information is appreciated.
