Walter, welcome to the forums. Your gun sounds really interesting. Have you checked to see if there are existing factory records on your gun? You should consider joining the PGCA before ordering your letter, it will save you money on the letter and you will receive the quarterly Parker Pages magazine free with the membership. You will also have access to several other forums that are for members only. I'm wondering how you determined the 1874 date of manufacture. Does it have a four digit serial number?
Please do put up some pictures! We all love pictures here.

Thanks David. I joined the PGCA about 20 minutes ago. And yes, a four digit serial number, 3345.

Walter, your gun as you describe it sounds like a wonderful find. I can't wait to see some photographs and to learn more about it. I'm sure once you post photos, you'll have some knowledgeable replies. I hope there are records for your gun and that they reveal information consistent with gun you have.

Welcome!
