Thanks, Dean. That's easier than looking up the totals in the "Grades" section.

I wasn't being sarcastic, just wondered if the serialization book was developed after the TPS or where the serial numbers were obtained.... that's all..

No, I know you're not. I really don't have an answer. Perhaps Chuck can answer that, or maybe Bill Murphy. Or maybe Bill Mullins, one of the authors of The Parker Story. Charlie Price could also probably answer it but we don't hear much from Charlie lately. It was from Charlie's tables that the Serialization book was developed.

John, the database compiled by the authors of TPS from the Remington records was what was used to publish the S & I book. The S & I book is mainly made up from the stock books but also included guns D and higher found in the order books but were missing from the stock books we don't have. Give me the S/N and I'll tell you if the gun is listed in either the stock or order book. Most likely it was just a mistake and the S/N was not included in TPS list of 28 ga. guns.
