Of course wedding bands it's a AAHE!
I spent the afternoon in my living room with a BIG glass of bourbon just looking her over and raising her to my cheek!! We did shoot sporting clays with her today along with a few others from the Brothers Parker. |

"Dayem".... The engraving just reminds me of another AAHE that, well - I'm sort of babysitting as well... What an excellent example... Many many thanks for the share, Craig!!

Would that happen to be it's original case in the background too? Great wood.
I agree John, it does remind me of another AAHE. |

Yes it is the original case with all the cleaning tools, a leather forend guard and what appears to be the original felt covers for the stock and barrels. The leather case needs some attention so I plan to bring it to the Southern to have brother McCormick evaluate it.

Not enough adjectives for this one. They seem inadequate. One thing I noticed that I have never seen before is that a Patent stamp is on the wood behind the trigger bow. Assuming this is the norm, but I'm not well versed in such etherial Parkers. Can someone comment on that please.
Cheers, Jack

That stamp is the patent stamp for the hickory rod---refer to your TPS
Not only is this a nice gun but there is a great story to be told which I am working on---- |
