    Default Real Parker-Hale Volunteer for sale

    Birmingham made Parker-Hale .451 for sale. Low serial number. My 1967 GTO needs transmission rebuilt.
    Rifle in excellent condition.
    Have bullet sizer, bullet mold, combination tool, extra rear sights and a few other goodies. Need to move this quickly to rebuilt the trans.
    If you are serious, send me a PM for more details.

    Default Real Parker-Hale Volunteer rife for sale

    This rifle is almost 100% and from what I can tell, is an early production in the early to mid 70's
    Serial number H 1751. Proof marks are crossed septers with P C 4 within the crossings. Small Crown on the underside of barrel with BP stamped under crown. Same crown marking appears on the top of the tang. Forward of the rear sight reads " Parker-Hale Ltd Birmingham England". Large crown appear on the lockplate and Parker-Hale stamped into to right side of the walnut butt stock. Brass or bronze tipped ramrod. Checkering on the grip and forearm is very high quality. Barrel bluing is 100% with no wear. The only defect is minor scratches in the finish and not the walnut stock. This rifle is not an Italian made knock off. I do not have the original box or the instruction book that came with it. Comes with a hard case, not original, sling, two addition rear sights, extra original brass nipple, lyman bullet mold, bullet sizer, and original combination tool. I am not sure about the type of rifeling, but it is 8 lands and grooves which look like "hook and slant". It may be Henry type but I am not sure, they came with two types. Will send interested parties pictures via email if requested by personal message and will give my phone number.

    Reducing the price for quick sale.
    Price now is now $900.00 and I will pay shipping. I have pictures but am not sure how to post them. In the hands of a good rifleman, this one will "drives tacks" at 500 + yards!!!!
