Hello, I am Cynthia. Being the only granddaughter in the family, my male cousins and brother got all of the guns passed down from our ancestors. My brother recently offered to give me one. It’s an 1879 Parker Brothers. I don’t know what prompted this gesture, but I jumped on the opportunity even though admittedly I don’t shoot or know my way around this type of gun. The serial is 15077 so I hope to request research, I just need to figure out how to answer the questions on the form. I’m interested in learning about this gun and the company. My Grandfather’s were farmers, ranchers and rural mail carriers - so my thinking is this was a utility purchase. They wouldn’t need something they didn’t intend to use and cost would be as important as quality.

Thank you for the opportunity to be included - I hope I don’t ask annoying questions. It’s just new to me.
