    Parker Hale 3 band 1853 question

    Greetings,

    I heard somewhere that the Parker Hale P1853 3 band rifled musket has a factory 2 piece stock. Is this true? If so, on all production or just certain ones?

    Also, if 2 piece stock, any accuracy issues as a result?

    Thanks!!

    3 bands are all 2 piece. They have come apart. You just glue them back together. Only affects accuracy if it comes apart.

    Mine from 1978 was 2 - pieced. Glass bedded and never a problem.
