1903 PARKER 16 GA O FRAME

[Pa SxS]

I'd have the seller post pictures of the serial number on the water table and the serial number on the side of the barrel lug. The barrels and the top of the breach balls should be even. Post pictures of the serial numbers here if you can.

To play Devil's Advocate, I would say that the barrels should be even across the top of the breech balls, not like the pictures. To be honest, the pictures may be distorted. For $3500, the wall thickness should be measured. On a normal 0 frame 16, it should be ???. On any American made gun you would pay that price for, it should be at least .030. The bores should be within a couple of thousandths of .665.
