New Parker and New Member
Hello from Kansas City,
I bought my first Parker yesterday and have some concerns/questions.Her SN is 25039 which shows she was made in 1882.Frame size is 2.She came with a solid steel butt plate with a toe.Is that a replacement plate?She should have the Dog Head butt plate I am thinking.All The SN match throughout.I was concerned because of no checkering on the grip that it had a replacement stock but the SN just to the rear of the triggers matches.The grip cap is small and checkered.Original ???? The wood is not dinged up but I think someone years ago refinished the stock.Whatever they used lets no grain come through.She locks up tight and has a fine patina.The bores are perfect.No rust anywhere.Twist barrels.Overall,not a bad looking gun but could someone address my questions as to how much she has been monkeyed with?Thank you in advance. Ron
