Z8355 10 Ga. Parker Brothers Brass Shotshell (10A)

Description: Decent example of a 10 Ga. brass shotshell manufactured by the Parker Gun Company of Meridan, Connecticut. This shell is a product of the 1870’s and employs a brass Berdan primer. This shotshell was fired at some point and appears to have been reprimed. The inside of the case has a little oxidation. There are a few spots on case and one small bump on the edge of the case mouth. A nice example from a collectible company.
