Hello All! under the unfortunate circumstance of my grandmother passing, i received a myriad of different firearms that were my grand fathers. one of which is this parker shortgun. It has had a very long and useful life judging from the wear and 'personality' marks. However, i am no historian and all knowledge of where this may have come from passed with her (if she even knew).
I've read quite a lot and i believe this was originally manufactured between 1868 and 1874. It is externally hammered and has no serial..
The right hammer was broken/went missing and so a new one was recrafted by some owner or smith long ago. It is perfect - it can be pushed foward to fire without the trigger :0.
There's so many question, but most of the answers are lost to time..If anyone can tell me anything more about this i would be very appreciative
