Default My Heart is Pounding!!

I just received 58484, 12, DH, Damascus, 30", DT, skeleton, INCREDIBLE 3 dog engraving. Modified xModified. I will eat my hat if the gun has had 500 rounds thru it. Barrels are 95%, 80% Case remaining externally, 100 % in protected areas, not a screw looks turned. There is even faint case color on the skeleton plate. Sone light handling marks on the wood, with buttstock checkering sharp, and forend "almost" sharp. Lever far right, and action sticky new. It is a "1" frame, and weighs 6# 14oz's. Came in a fancy leg-o-mutton with the Baker Gun Company crest on the side.

I knew the photos on the gun looked good, the store in florida posted it on gunbroker at 5:30 in the morning last friday......i called and called til i got him and bought the gun. But now in my hands.....WOW

I am by no means a Parker Expert....is this a "rare bird"? Seems i dont see too many 1 frame older guns. Is the three dog engraving a plus??

Looking forward to all that weigh in...feel like a kid at christmas!
