FINE 1892 Parker PH Grade 12 Gauge SxS Shotgun Engraved with Twist Barrels
Description: Antique Parker Engraved PH Double Barrel Shotgun Finest American Shotgun Maker Est. 1868 Here we present an antique Parker Brothers Hammerless Double Barrel Shotgun, PH Grade with an Extractor, made in 1892 in Meriden, Connecticut. Charles Parker was an entrepreneur who began working in U.S. manufacturing in the 1830s. Interestingly, one of his first products was a coffee mill. He also collaborated on several government contracts to make arms during the American Civil War, including one for the Model 1861 and then a truly interesting, rare breech-loading design for the state of Kentucky, called the Triplett & Scott Carbine. Finally, in 1866, after his experience in arms manufacture for the war effort, he and his sons, Wilbur and Dexter, began the company Parker Brothers, making sporting shotguns. This company is considered to have been the best manufacturer of fine American shotguns, ever. The company was in business until 1942. This shotgun features 12 gauge bores, with 2-5/8 inch chambers. Chokes are improved modified and full. The action is hammerless and it does have a tang safety. This gun does have an extractor, which makes this gun even more scarce and desirable to the collector. The barrels are excellent Damascus and reflect “Parker Bros Makers. Meriden Conn. Twist”. The barrel rib is nicely textured to reduce glare. The front sight is a bead, and there is a German silver initial placard on the bottom of the butt stock. Hard rubber butt plate with the company name and a pointing dog. The frame reflects the company name as well and is nicely factory engraved. The trigger guard reveals the serial number. The splinter forearm removes easily to expose perfect casehardening on the forearm and the frame of the gun. The exterior frame shows some of the original case colors as well. Serial numbers match. PH grade. All markings are crisp and clear. The bores are excellent. Walnut stock certainly shows signs that this gun was used, but very well cared for. Action is tight and this gun will make a fantastic shooter for someone looking for “old world” quality, history and experience. They do not get much better than this. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 30 inches in length. Chambers are 2-5/8 inches. Caliber: 12 gauge Bore is in excellent condition. The firing mechanism is excellent. Overall condition as seen in photos. Here is a very nice, very collectible, and investment worthy Parker shotgun for your collection. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2650 #10322 SOLD Antique: Yes |
