Does anyone know anything about the front bead on this gun? I have one on one of my Elsies and now see it on this Parker too. Was it an aftermarket? Kinda different with the half white half brass

It is the Marble Bi-Color front sight and most certainly was an option that could be ordered from the factories. It was the favorite of Nash Buckingham and is specified on many of the A.H. Fox Gun Co. order cards that he placed.
