Gentlemen Good News!
I just got my reply to my enquiry on my Parker. It did leave the factory just as you see it. By the way I measured the chamber diameters last week and they appeared to be for a 12 gauge barrel, not a 10 as marked on the barrels. The letter confirmed that it is a 12 gauge with choked 30 inch plain twisted sateel barrels. It was ordered by a gentleman from Toledo Ohio on October 8, 1880 and delivered November 18, 1880. The Order Book No. 7 lists it as a $50 Dollar Grade, Lifter Action Hammer Gun, 12 Gauge.
