Reading through the Hammer Doubles chapter in The Parker Story I find the last recorded hammer gun, a Top Action PT 10- gauge with 32” Plain Twist barrels was started in November of 1917. I thought I remembered a 1927 made hammer gun reported in this forum quite a while back but maybe I’m confusing it with the last Damascus barreled gun....
