Rediscovered Old Parker
Hello, all, and thank you for all of the great information in this forum and on the site. Over the weekend, I was reexamining some guns inherited from my grandfather and realized that one of the guns is an early Parker. I entered the serial number (01157) into the PGCA search, and it told me the gun is likely pre-1874. I believe it is a 12 gauge with 30" barrels. It seems to be in fairly nice shape for a gun of that age. There is rust and wear, but the only major damage appears to be a left hammer with the top broken off. The action is smooth and the barrels tight.
I'm posting some (poor) photos I took with my phone so you all can have a look. I'm interested in restoring it but don't know the first place to start. Appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
Jeff
