The "4" on the water table is the indication of grade. A grade 4 is an SC grade. For a look at what an SAA Parker may look like, go on the Julia auction site and look at item # 2433 in the October gun auction. Maybe someone would link those pictures for us.

Why don't you link them for us; now that you have thrown your dash of turmeric into the pot, so to speak?

Kevin, Rick Losey kindly posted a link for us several posts back. Check it out. Linda has an extensive herb garden but did not grow any tumeric this year. A little goes a long way. Maybe next year. Tell us what you think of the Runge SAA Parker.

You can see in the photo of the water table that the "C" has been stamped over with an "S" and then the "AA" added after that.

So you have an SC grade with was the lowest catalogued grade of the single barrel trap guns.

The configuration and grade you have SC, 12g. 32" is the most common of the Single barrel traps.

It looks like a rare gun to me - an unmolested trap gun. Can't be many of them around

Yup, a very nice SC. Can someone link the Julia Auction description of item #2433 in the October gun auction so we can see what an SAA Parker looks like? Thanks, it just happens to be above my pay grade to link anything.

The Julia auction gun is an upgrade and I don't want to post an upgrade in the grades section. I asked for pictures of a real SAA but never got them.

How can we be sure the upgrade is an honest representation of the "one and only" SAA, therefore I would rather let things as they are on the grades page.
