Parker snap caps…

[Mike Stahle]

Just picked up a set of these. “WOW” talk about the most heavy duty snap caps I have ever seen or held. I also have a set of 12 ga. Parker Reproduction caps that are top notch, but nothing like these straight up Parker's in 16 ga. Anyone know who makes these?

[Garrett Begovich]

Those look great! Where did you find them?

[Wild Skies]

IMHO, they appear to be the nickel plated brass snap caps that Galazan marketed which were also available gold plated. (The current snap caps they're selling now have a ring machined around the shaft). Customers can order them custom engraved with script or block lettering for an additional $20/pair.

I have a pair of those. One is oversized and will only fit in certain shotgun chambers. I've toyed with chucking it in the lathe and turning it down. That set looks like it's never seen a firing pin

They look like the snaps at Jeff's Outfitters.

Don't I remember that these were marketed with the Repro Parkers?

I was under the impression that parker's didn't need snap caps because of the way the firing mechanism was built?

Gerry, Parker hammerless guns, whether original or Repros, don't need snap caps because of their design but fine guns in their custom made cases are generally supplied with snap caps in order to complete the aesthetic presentation of the gun.
