    Thank you, Sir. I'll be passing it on to him momentarily. You'll be happy to know that your Musketoon is the real deal and not some Eyetalian frawk. @JB101 - I passed your number over as well - the barrel and other parts are certainly from PH.

    BP rifles, no longer in my possession but possibly somewhere in Yorkshire.

    I had 3 Parker Hale rifles and all sold sometime ago.
    Calibre 0.451 serial number 454. 2 band rifle.
    " 0.451 " " H1670.
    " 0.577 " " 4839.

    #454 was an excellent rifle and used on 100 and 200 yd ranges in Yorkshire.
    The .577 used on 100 yds range only.

    Hope this info is of use.

    Regards, HM
