HOW RARE ARE 8 GUAGE PARKERS ?

[MarketHunter]

The pinfire cases would be another fabulous rarity, just like the only known shotgun with a stalking safety setup. That is if the cases are all brass like you say. Since pinfire shells weren't made to be reloaded, all brass would have made for an awfully expensive throw away.

Only known? Hmmm, I've had 2, one a Steven Grant hammergun with individual stalking safeties, the other an H&H with tang mounted, above the safety.
The Grant was a Jones underlever with Perkes patent self cocking mechanism.

I'm sure there are a few out there. To me that's a big bore rifle set up, maybe they were intended as round ball guns or had another set of barrels at one time. I'm really just giving our boy George a hard time for the most part, he loves it.......

The Grant was a 16, The Holland a 12, 30" 5# gun, so I doubt it was ever barreled with anything else as it was straight stocked, 1913 mfg.
