Default I too have an O frame,

I hope I can add to this thread.... I too have a Parker 16, O frame. It's a PH, that looks like it was hardly shot..... BUT, the butt stock was cut off so as Gene Hill once said, "it was fitted to an Abyssinian dwarf". I know that this was done a very long time ago, as the recoil pad on the gun was an early Jostam 2 ply sponge runner pad. This was the pad that was put on the Winchester Model 12, Ladies Trap Gun.

Art, you absolutely added to the thread. The PH twist is a favorite pattern of mine, and a 16 0 frame…well it doesn’t get any better. Thanks for sharing your gun with us.

The engraving on that PH sure pops. I like it.
