The subject gun on Gunbroker has been on there for a LONG time. Not sure why. The gun has some condition and the price is not terribly out of whack, i think.

The lock "engraving" is actual roll stamping. Grade ones had this for a short time as Parker was playing with the use of it. It did not last terribly long.

I learn something every day. Never seen that roll stamped sideplate before, but the GunAuction listing is identical, if in much poorer shape. Thanks for the input.

Nice gun, a bit close to the high end of pricing. Gauge? Is the seller sure it is a 12?

Rarely does a GB description give you all that, just missing wall thickness and choke constriction to be a full set
