The Lost and Found List

[Jack Bright]

I have some information on Parkers which may have been parted out.

Some background: I had ordered a trigger plate and some other parts for 56901 from Numrich, and, due to some ordering quirk, I received three orders. For the record, I received trigger plates from 63538 (swirl engraving), 139465 (pheasant/bird engraving), and from 175201 (plane). Also, forend tips received were from 2358? (plane), 87674 (engraved), and from 88603 (engraved).

On another purchase on ebay I received a forend lock from 223184.

It can be presumed that these guns had been parted out. I thought that the Association might be keeping records of such findings and wanted to list this information for the benefit of our members.

I’m “restoring” 56901, a grade E 10 gauge, with a #2 frame. Sometime in the distant past the correct #2 barrels were replaced with #3 10 gauge 32 inch Damascus Steel barrels from 58692. Don’t know why or what happened to 58692 but it was likely parted out too. I’d very much like to obtain a set of #2 10 gauge 32 inch Damascus Steel barrels to return the gun to its original configuration. Can anyone help? I’d also like to obtain a set of #2 12 gauge steel barrels to allow me to occasionally actually shoot the gun. Can anyone help here too?

Two corrections to my earlier listing follow:
First, the bottom/trigger plate numbered 175201 should be 115201. Rechecked this time with my glasses on.
Second, I checked my Parker Letter and the original 10 ga barrels for 56901 were 30 in. So I'm looking for a pair of Damascus Steel 10 ga. #2 frame 30 in barrels, not 32 in.

Local guy was advertising theses barrels so I picked them up. They are damascus thought he serialization book said this gun was supplied with twist barrels, it also said a second set of barrels was supplied so these must be them.

They are a bit rough, with the left barrel having some dents and what looks a bulge that may have been attempted to repair. To my unpracticed I I don't know that they can be fixed, but if someone has this gun maybe they want these barrels and forend. Forend is complete, but all the checkering is worn off.

Looking for barrel for GH #1 frame, current barrels are pitted beyond safe use. A family gun that I would like to put back in service.

This list is for reuniting missing parts. You are better served posting a WTB request with pictures of what you have. George

Greetings!

Need the forend wood and tip for my DH 12 ga. 1-1/2 frame with ejectors.
Likely a splinter?
The original wood will likely be dark.
Someone put a BTFE on mine and didn't even come close with the color...

Or, I could use a similar used piece with the tip to put on my gun...
Thanks again for a great site!
