2 Parkers

[Big Friend Ten (BFT)]

Richard,

One must first post photos to a photo sharing site such as photobucket.com or picturetrail (not sure of URL). Once on a sharing site (actually in a server which allows sharing) look for the URL for websites. There will be several URLs listed for each photo. Copy the correct URL and paste into your post. It's that simple! The photo sharing site will automatically reduce the photo for a website.

Please sign up for a FREE photo sharing site and upload your photos. If you cannot locate the correct URL ask again on this site and someone will walk you through the process!

Also, this link provides better instructions than did I; http://parkerguns.org/forums/faq.php...l&titlesonly=0

Respectfully,
Mark

I hope that this link works. I have not used this type of application in the past.

The muzzle loader has a crack in the stock and may have mismatched hammers(?). Both guns were kept "under the bed" by parents and were not really maintained.

Anything that you can tell me about them would be appreciated.

The muzzleloader may be by a British maker named Parker or may be a Belgium knockoff - you can tell which by looking at the proof marks on the underside of the barrels - samples of the different countries marks can be found at http://www.phoenixinvestmentarms.com...Proofmarks.pdf

the other gun is a Parker Trojan - as a small bore - might be worth fixing up assuming the barrel are solid
