Barrel rib indicates plain twist steel.
So the serial number 20930 would make this an 1881 produced gun?
The 1875 date may be a patent mark instead of its manufacture?
Also this gun has the later forend latch instead of the cross pin found on most of the early ones that I have seen, is that unusual?
I will post a picture of the complete gun once it is reassembled.
This one is a "truck gun" grade Parker.
