1917 Parker Single Barrel Trap

[Bill Murphy]

I could have made myself clearer. "I have not seen an early SB" is what I meant to say. I assume early SBs are Titanic Steel, like another poster suggested.

Bill, I have a SB made in 1920. Would that be considered early?

Regards,

The steel type is stamped on the barrel flat. Titanic is "T", Acme is "A". Randy, only you can tell us what the marking is on your B Grade. Does anyone have an early SA that they can check.

Mike, check the barrel flats for a symbol of steel type. Probably a T for Titanic.

Randy, Parker started SBT's in 1917 and they had floral engraving on the trigger floor plate. These are the guns I would consider "early SBT
s"

Good Morning Gentlemen, I checked my SB grade made in 1920. Marked Acme Steel on barrel and "A stamped on barrel flat. Also had three patent dates stamped on barrel flat. I guess now I need to send for a letter to learn more...
