Wm Parkhurst double hammer 12 ga.

[John Wesley Hardin]

Well, it's me again--begging at the table of knowledge!! I have come into possession of a Wm. Parkhurst 12 ga . hammer gun. It is profusely engraved on the receiver, trigger guard, and ornate floral carving on the wrist and forearm. It is Belgium made, due to it's having Wm. instead of William, with Belgium Laminated barrels. That's about all I know about it. Condition would be "Very Good" in my opinion. Locks up like your refrigerator door and bores are good, mostly bright and I believe they will clean up even better than they are now. Anybody got any idea of it's value? Please tell me I didn't get slaughtered again! I paid $150.00 for it. Everything on it works as it is supposed to Very Heavy gun, probably around 8-9 lbs. Thanks in advance!! John Wesley Hardin

Read the link. Heck, I don't remember making that post; found it with Google.

Probaly Belgian, probably a workingman's gun, probably worth a couple of hundred dollars at best.
