Parker Hale Musketoon

[Jagumba]

This is my Parker Hale Musketoon in .577 that I bought for dad a few years ago. He can’t use it anymore, so I have it back. I can’t wait to take it out hunting! This one was a limited edition here in Australia

That's a real beauty! Even the case is well made. What would you hunt with that? Charge and bullet?

It will shoot patched balls as well as the .577" diameter minie ball bullets originally designed for use in it. That's a beautiful rifle.

Is that a maple stock?

Is that a maple stock?

I am not sure - I thought it would be walnut but am probably wrong!

 

[Mnt monkey]

It looks like Maple that might have been stained however sometimes you find Walnut with that kind of figurative whatever it is it's beautiful

 

[bandicoot]

It would be logical were it curly english walnut, but it may be maple imported to the British isles. In any case, it looks like PH did a fine job on your rifle.

Nice Rifle

Very nice.
Witnessed Larry Talley at Friendship shoot one sitting off his knees at 500yd rams- once he found the sight picture, he began hitting nearly every shot.
Enjoy.

I'd really like to have a rifle like this I'm going to have to take a hard look at that Pedersoli,, often catch myself looking at the Gibbs and the English Rigby but it's more from stock design and ergonomics for me. This parker rifle looks quick to point, easy to carry, and like it would just feel good.

Impressive shooting!

It certainly does feel good in the hands. I highly recommend them if you can find one!

I think the Pedersoli replica would be all I'm able to find, but I'm also interested in the cook and brother carbine, I know I want the stock lines I see in the parker hale.
