Actually, Dean, after consultation with Mr. B, I shipped it back to Texas this morning. The tangs were just too low for one of my re-stocks and I didn't feel like having them bent up. The fore end was a bit loose to but this was a minor issue. Another "resource allocation" decision"... It's a nicely restored gun if you can live with the drop and repaired wrist. It does have a damned fine set of barrels. BTW, Mr. B opines the case colors look like those from the old Heinzelman firm of Carlstadt, NJ. (lots of "original" Foxes went through there)

Pete, it's Farwell, Ozum, Kirk, and, yes, they are a well known source of Parkers and other guns of the period.
