I was thinking of posting this under the Parker Hammer Guns heading but then it isn't one anymore, is it...
Started out as a Quality 3 or D 12 gauge on the 2-frame.
We've heard of this gun and maybe a few have seen a picture of it but this is the first time for it being exposed "gutted" shall we say?
Unique in every way and quite ingenious, wouldn't you say?

Very interesting...and intriguing. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Over the years I have seen two or three other Parker Bros. hammer guns converted to hammerless. Don't find pictures on this lap top, so they must have been on a long ago dead one.
