What do I have?
Parker Bros., 12G. Damascus barrels. The markings on the water table are,
2
92714
G
Damascus barrels, hammerless, the bores shine like mirrors, locks up tighter than any modern SxS I have ever held. I also have the original leather take down case, although the cleaning rod was misplaced sometime over the last 30 years. Condition is about par with age. Some minor dings in the furniture. The finish on the barrels looks more brown than some of the Damascus black and white I have seen. Case color pretty much gone.
The last time this was fired, would have been in the "50's" when my Dad hunted using Winchester AAs. He didn't know about Damascus There is a long and interesting story about how this fine shotgun came into my family's possession. I am the third generation to own it.
Any information, or help, is greatly appreciated.
