Well its definitely not a collectible gun and not certain about it being a shooter. Hard to tell if they underpaid or overpaid for that one. I can't figure whats going on with those barrels and that seam near the patched break in the rib. BTw have you guys seen break in the scroll work like that at what appears to be a seam in the barrel?
That one could be almost to the point where you spray the whole gun black and hang it near the ceiling of the foyer entrance to Pat O Briens in the French Quarter for the drunks to look at. Just took another look it may not be that bad but yes from a far it looks okay but up close in photos there are lots of questions. I guess the receiver, action and forend are worth something not certain about barrels. Last edited by Todd Poer; 02-15-2018 at 08:38 AM.. |

"The firearm is all matching expect for the barrel set. However there are original Parker Bros barrel that is of the era."
and in what era did Parker sleeve barrels maybe - someone with "tactical" in their name is not an expert on doubles

A sleeve job where the rib was not re laid? Almost looked like the tubes were simply butt welded together. And make sure and zoom in in the stock, literally looks like a jigsaw puzzle.

I see the forend has a piece scabbed into it as well. I will have to say though, someone did go through a lot of trouble to put that stock back together. I mean it almost looks like a humpty dumpty gun that someone left that gun on the top of car and drove off and then came back to pick up all the parts and put it back together. Starting to feel bad. Just a wild speculation but I'll bet whoever did that work owned that gun and had limited means and was sick at their stomach while putting it back together. If they did butt weld barrels together right at the forcing cones they must have been very skilled, knowledgeable or lucky. Last edited by Todd Poer; 02-15-2018 at 08:47 AM.. |

If they gave the gun to you,you would lose money on it.
