Donnie: I have SN 0229. Parker pages lists earlier ones than ours but not many are in private hands. Congratulations!

Best Regards, George

Serial number 06 or 09 is in the Meriden Historical Society's collection. I was donated to them many years ago by the Parker family. It is a T-Latch gun with percussion cap nipples. I have handled the gun and it's very interesting.

I was looking at the parker tonight. The gun will not take a 12 guage shell and a 16 guage slell just rolls around. I think this gun is a 14 guage any other way to tell? Donnie
