I recently inherited a Parker Bros SBT with the following markings on the water table:

PAT'D October 25, 1916

SAA
220773
4

Can anyone help with any specifications (grade, etc) and an estimate of insurance value?
Both the metal work and wood are in good to very good condition.

No existing records on this serial no. It would be helpful if you could post some pictures of the gun.

Yes, there is a bit of a conflict between the SAA and the 4. Pictures are required to identify your gun.

Default SBT Pictures

On a bit of a learning curve here.

I hope to have attached five pictures of the gun that I mentioned. Let's see if they go through.

You have an SC grade Parker. Nice looking gun.

Thanks.

There don't seem to be many of these on the market so arriving at a valuation for insurance purposes is a bit of challenge...

Shawn, a number of variables must be considered when attempting to put a value on these guns. Condition, configuration and originality are to name just a few. In my opinion a typical "untouched/not messed with" SC would be valued in the $2,500.00 to $3,500.00 price range. To put a more specific value on your gun, be it more or less than the range I proffered, would require someone giving it a hands on inspection.

A very fine inheritance.
