What is its weight Josh??

I just went to page 1027 of TPS to see if it’s the same gun… but it’s not.

Is that the longest barreled Parker Brothers gun? Are there more that 1?

That’s really a cool gun. A gun that leads to a plethora of questions, one might be: Why would the original purchaser order such a gun? (Cure whippiness?)

There was a RIA a couple years ago that had three Parker’s with 40” barrels . A hammer 8 , an EH 10 and a GH 12 .

I've long though this pair of 12-gauges would be pretty outrageous to find --

but a two-inch longer 16-gauge!! Mind is blown!
