It has been four years before the public, and
its success is really remarkable, Its superiority
over all others, and the claims of the manufaC-

FACTS:
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of
American SpOrtmcn than any Foreign breeCh-
loader.
There are three times us many Parker Gunsiu
the hands of American spOrtmGn as there are OF
any other American made breech-loader.
At the Utica convention of the New York State

men who used the Parker gun was equal to that
of all others who used central fire brecch load

bined.
While the Parker gun is so often reported as
distinguishing itself at large shoots throughout
the country. it is nOticable that few such reports
are made of any other gun.
