Your friend would do well to join PGCA and post this in the for sale section. He should have no trouble getting a good sale on it and more than recouping the membership fee.

I am really not sure why he doesn't belong to PGCA as he is a keen collector and restorer of Parkers, he must have bits and pcs for twenty guns, other than perhaps his age and very slow if any Internet access. As for selling this gun when he's ready, and he definately has his own pace, I will help him put it in the correct forum if he doesn't join for some reason.

You are a true friend for him. The 4 issues a year of Parker Pages is worth the $40, for anyone interested in Parkers.

That stock may not be original to the gun, but it is original Parker. The RB stamp you mention is actually P.B. for Pearson Bannister who was a stock maker for Parker.

It is hard to tell by the photo is the water table what the other markings are other than the serial number. Can you clarify? That looks like a Trojan OV mark over the serial number. But it has PS barrels and a sculpted frame. VERY interesting gun!

We see the Trojan's OV stamped into that horizontal diamond insignia more often than other grades but we have seen other higher grades stamped in that insignia as well. A certain A1S comes to mind.
