Hi Nick.
It looks pretty worn, but may still be useable if the bores are not pitted or badly dented. Does it rattle when shaken and is the stock sound? |

Hi Austin,
What’s your real interest in it? It’s a bit off to come on here and say my 138-year-old gun looks worn. This piece has never been in the field and has never been used. The patina on the metal and the darkened wood are simply the marks of time—it’s essentially a museum piece. No checks in the wood, no scratches. I’d love to see photos of your 138-year-old gun so we can compare conditions. |

It seems as though you have taken my questions as an attempt to demean your gun. I assure you that is not the case. Most of us in the PGCA have purchased our Parkers to use..collect..or refurbish, and with those goals in mind my questions were meant to offer assistance rather than critisism. Regards, Austin |

Your pictures don't show a gun that has never been hunting. We would like to see better pictures in better light. It well may be a museum piece.
