Coach gun

[Setter Man]

Another "rare" and highly valued "coach guns." LOL.

Its a Parker that someone cut the barrels down to the minimum legal length and nothing more.

Bill Murphy, thanks for the suggestions. I will give it a try. This "rare" an "valuable" coach gun could see service as a home protection firearm.

It's a Parker and someone gave it to you. Can't beat that.

Would you happen to be the Bill Vance from the OWR ?

Not that Bill Vance. I am an Arizona native and older than dirt. Bi the way, what is OWR?

Bill Murphy you da man! I soaked and tapped with the dowel and the gun is fully operational. I still want to remove the butt stock and clean the gunk out. I will try the search function for that operation.

Thanks again,

Bill

The OWR ( Old Westmorland Rifle ) association. One of there leaders is Bill Vance. They are all about old Kentucky (Pennsylvania rifles). Bill has generously given me advice the last few years. I thought maybe I could give a little back.

[Bill Murphy]

Removing the stock is a tricky operation. If the gun is operational, I would lubricate the working surfaces and quit at that point.

[Bill Vance]

Thanks Bill. I looked at the tutorial on this site and I believe you are correct. Stock removal is fraught with chances of lost parts.

How is the rest of the gun--the stock, etc. Hey, at least it will start some conversations. The picture posting function here is pretty simple.
