what gauge is this parker bro. 1901?

[Brush Buster]

Hello Lucas , Since you now own your first Parker Brothers shotgun it would be a Great Time to consider joining the Parker Gun Collectors Association ! There are many benefits ,one being a large discount on the Parker Gun Collectors Factory Letter to possibly find out who and where your gun was shipped when it was new ,your savings on your first letter almost covers your annual Membership Dues ! The other thing no one has mentioned ,you want to really take a good look or possibly have a Professional make a good examination of your barrel ! It might just be a mark along the Rib but in your third picture it looks to me as if the barrel might be split just below the rib ? I certainly hope not ,maybe you will get other opinions here ! Welcome Aboard ! Russ

I was looking at everything on the sight and thinking about becoming a member. As for the spot on the rib, it’s just fresh oil that hadn’t been wiped down yet. Definitely going to post some more pictures this evening. I also have an old Ithaca hammered double, would that be something you all would be interested in seeing some pictures of? I know nothing about it either. Or is this forum for Parker’s only?

You could probably stick to finding out more about your Parker here and going on Shotgunworld "Ithaca Lovers" subforum to ask about your Ithaca. Joining PGCA and ordering a letter on your gun would be in your interest.
