?'s on an 1890 PH with Vulcan barrels
I've acquired a 12 ga. PH Grade gun serial number 59683 made in 1890. It is a # 1 frame gun that weighs 7lbs even with 30 inch Vulcan steel barrels that are numbered correctly to the gun. It also has ejectors which I believe were added when the barrels were fitted. The gun has the early non-slotted hinge pin. I'm ordering a letter and that may shed some light on the conversion, if I'm lucky. I'd love to hear comments from other Parker owners who have or have had re-barreled damascus guns. It's the trimmest 12 bore Parker I've ever owned and I plan on using it in the field. The chambers are 2 3/4". I appreciate all of your responses! BD
