Description:

Manufactured in 1904. Features dual white bead sights on the solid matte rib barrels marked "PARKER BROTHERS. MAKERS. MERIDEN CONN. SPECIAL STEEL", 2 3/4 inch chambers with an extractor, choked cyl/cyl. The box lock action is scroll engraved with "PARKER BROS" and game bird scenes on the sides and a game bird scene on the underside. The engraving is correct for a "G" grade gun. The water table is marked with the patent dates and "GH/130695/2". Double triggers and tang safety. Checkered straight grip stock with an "H" marked initial shield and a checkered naked butt. Length of pull is 14 inches.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as professionally restored and finished, with 99% of the blue and casehardened finishes and some scattered light handling marks. The letters in "SPECIAL" on the barrel marking are slightly uneven and offset indicating the marking has been changed. Engravings are crisp and detailed. The wood is very good with nice figuring and grain, some scattered light handling marks and minor dings. Mechanically excellent.
