Assume each lots may or may not have had restoration or refinishing work to wood and metal. Included are the hand written notes. Blued Damascus barrels and receiver. Two bead sight. Hardwood stock with thick Kick-Eez recoil pad. Checkered semi pistol grip and forend. Matching serial numbers on receiver, trigger guard, and forend. Non matching "198403" on barrels. Other markings include patent dates ranging from "1887-1910", 'VH", "V' etc. on water table, 'JG" in an oval, "313", "12", "1 1/2" etc. under barrels. "PARKER BROS" on both sides of receiver etc. Mechanically including hinge, lock up, auto set safety, extractors and triggers appear to work reasonably well. Installation of forend is a little awkward but tight and secure once installed. Most bluing worn leaving brown gray patina. Forend is cracked from lever through right side. Other use, handling and storage marks to wood and metal. See gunsmith's notes in image gallery] serial # 210331, PAL required Description subject to change. Please check back for any updates.
