serial #78671, 10 ga. on No. 3 frame, 30" Bernard twist barrels with bright excellent bores choked full and extra full (.029" and .035""). Large bore CH grade Parkers are extremely rare, this particular gun is one of only 27 in 10 bore with Bernard twist barrels. The shotgun features fine scroll engraving with dogs in panel scenes on either side and with running bull Elk on bottom. The engraving remains sharp and crisp and the borders show a wonderful geometric pattern. The barrels show vivid Bernard twist pattern their entire length and have an unusual hand engraved barrel address. The action retains about 50% original color case-hardened finish which has thinned and is blending with a lovely smooth gray patina with no pitting and sharp engraving; color on the watertable is vivid. The triggerguard retains about 70% original blue with areas of loss turning to a smooth gray brown patina. The gun is stocked in a wonderful grade of English walnut with beautifully checkered wrist with pattern formed around the well-defined dropper points. All checkering remains sharp and crisp with the stocks retaining 95% plus original oil finish, wood-to-metal fit is superb. The gun wears its original skeleton steel shotgun buttplate which features light border engraving and retains about 50% original blue. This is an extremely rare, high-grade Parker shotgun which remains in a very nice state of preservation and locks up tightly. The gun comes with a Parker Gun research letter which shows it was ordered by E.H. Madison in Brooklyn NY and shipped to him on June 30, 1893. The letter states CH, 30" Bernard steel barrels, "no shoulder in chamber, long trigger to full in guard, guard rounded in bend and a long tip (forend)". The stock dimensions are listed at 13 3/4" length, drop at heel 2 7/8", weight 8 lbs 6 oz. and the price in 1893 was $150.00. Formerly in the collection of very well-known and respected collector and co-author of The Parker Story, Bill Mullins. A great opportunity for the advanced Parker collector to add a rare and desirable big bore Parker to their battery. (18321-4) {ANTIQUE}
