Dean you are right about the spacing, on another note I wonder if these little guns were made with women folk in mind, Parker made so few of them over a period of about 40 years approximately 15 lifters and 35 or so top lever guns. The 0 grade guns are rare in good condition shootable I mean, Gary

Not sure about that Gary - maybe youngsters or even adult bunny hunters... The one Austin had he called a "rabbit gun" because of the more than four inches of drop on a straight-grip stock. I held that one and was amazed anyone would actually want to shoot it at anything.... but the game had better be on the ground! Is it still in your collection Gary? .

I think I can add a few pictures of the rabbit gun of Austin's that I believe was featured in Parker Pages. Don't have time right now as I'm trying to finish the Spring Issue of Parker Pages.
