I will post some more pictures later. Right now the gun in In 50 pieces. I'm trying to clean it. It is in horrible shape. Got her with no stock its broken off right In the middle of the pistol grip. Unfortunately that is all the wood that came with. It sat in a garage near the ocean for no less Than 60 years So the beautiful damascus barrel ain't so beautiful at the moment. I'm not sure on the best way to clean it, but I'm still having a go at it.

Was this a rare gun? I'm trying to decide whether to keep at it or trash the project. Thanks again John |

Your gun was built in 1883.
Click the PGCA HOME link in the upper left corner find "Parker Grades" in left hand column scroll down to grade 3/D, there you should find pictures that look like your gun.HTH

A #4 frame Grade 3 hammer gun is a very valuable collector Parker. Before you give up on it, you should show us more pictures of all parts. Several of our members here would be interested in restoring such a gun.

No, not the garage again! Not near the ocean!! Not for a gun that desirable! Someone will restore it... Looks like the bbls do not have the same S/N as the gun?
