Earliest Hammerless Fishtail Parker

[Mills]

I always assumed they were used on some hammer less guns from the beginning, but it looks like that was not the case. I know the old story about using up inventory but I wonder why they did not use them from the beginning of hammer less production?

I like them too. For some reason they look better on hammer less Parkers

most likely because they were still making hammer guns as well

using up inventory would not make sense until the original product was either stopped or at least reduced

I have often wondered if it was a left handed thing. Myself being Left handed, I find it easier to operate the top lever.
