Underlifter Parkers at SXS

[Kevin McCormack]

Mr. McCrocklin, also see Double Gun Journal Volume 13, Issue 2 (Summer 2002), p. 43 for my article on a unique 10 ga. Grade 5 underlifter hammer gun, specifically the discussion on the vagaries of establishing grades before the numerical grading sequence was begun by Parker Bros., and some of the intracacies of determining grades after that, as in the case of extra embellishments, etc. The early ones will often surprise you!

thanks to all for the tips re identifying the recently discovered lifter. I have the family bringing it to my shop tomorrow to begin the ID process.
this will be my first time to actually research the details of a Parker this old and I'm sure I'll need plenty of guidance.... but I know I'm in the right place.
I will post measurements, markings info, and pics asap.
