Parker Brothers ~ Side x Side ~ 12 Gauge
Description: Parker Brothers Model 2 Side-By-Side 12 Gauge Shotgun. This gun has 28" barrels with a single bead front sight. Parker Brothers shotguns are one of the most easily recognizable American-made boxlock shotguns due to the fact that their hinge pin was not hidden, but rather made prominent by design. The large countersunk depression in the action, with visible screw head, sets Parker Brothers shotguns apart from other boxlock guns of the same period. In addition to their unique hinge pin, Parker shotguns also incorporated a square 'dolls head' barrel extension that locked the gun's action closed. Combined with the Purdy style underbite, the lock up on a Parker shotgun was far stronger than needed to contain the relatively mild pressures shot shells produced. Though the Parker Brothers lifter, external hammer design was widely popular and well regarded in the early days of production, the introduction of the hammerless, top lever actuated design swiftly took over and became the predominant version of the gun. This is what you have here. This Model 2 Side-By-Side has 28" barrels with a single bead front sight. 12 Gauge Price: Was $4,999.99 Now $3,499.77 Barrels: 28 Weight: 8 LB Sights: Bead Front Sight Item Location: christiana Contact Seller |
