Yes that was kind of my feeling as well I have 3 Parker’s but, this thing really doesn’t have the same appeal. But, when I came across it I thought someone might be interested because it was kind of how Parker Brothers got into the game. That being said I’m not bidding on it.

I have been interested in purchasing a Triplett and Scott rifle as long as I've been collecting Parkers. However, I have never found one that didn't have the characteristic cracked or broken stock.

Bill I’m not totally sure, but I don’t think this one has a cracked stock. When I checked again I didn’t see any cracks and the present bid is only $185.00. You might want to check it out.

Bill if you are really interested in this call me and I'll walk you through how to access the HiBid website, setup an account and then how to bid on this or other items that your interested in. They have Parker Brothers shotgun coming up for bid all the time because HiBid actually links to auctions nationwide.

The PGCA had one of these on display with other unusual Charles Parker guns and other items in the Meriden Historical Society’s headquarters in Meriden, CT.
There are a couple of articles concerning these guns in previous issues of Parker Pages when I was editor. One featured was the only known highly engraved one. .
