Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Lefever CE Engraver
I traded for this gun a couple of weeks ago and am curious as to who may have done the engraving and the pattern of damascus? I know there is quite a bit of Lefever knowledge on this board,and would appreciate any insight.The S/N dates this gun to 1893.

Hello James - Beautiful Lefever!
My best guess is that it looks like the work of Joseph Loy. I always look for his trademark eyes on dogs and those dogs look to be his - most especially the one on the trigger guard bow.
