Default Looking for a Hammer

I have an 1876 Parker double barrel, s/n 8829, that is missing the right hand hammer. Any idea where I can obtain a replacement?

Thanks

Hammers are fairly hard to come by for parkers. You will probable have to replace as a pair to get a match. Watch ebay.

You want to make sure that you use a matched pair. Since very often two separate hammers do not match.

gun butchers some times part out parkers and sell the pieces on ebay.

There is a set of hammers on Gunbroker right now. I saw them last night.

Don't be surprised at 100.00 to 150.00 for a nice matched pair of hammers. They are hard to come by. Any thing less than 100.00 is a bargain IMHO.

Anything less than $100 is a STEAL. They don't make Parker hammers anymore.
