Bill,
I have a 20/16 Set #P-405. I thought these sets were of later production which would not support your idea of early production using P until excused. Bob Jurewicz |

The 20-16 sets were made up from existing guns, not neccesarily guns made at the time of the 20-16 introduction.

Hi Guys, The "P" on the serial number was for Prototype. The first P numbered gun was # P 0026. I do not know how many were built as I was not that involved with them at that time. My father did not "give them away" as gifts etc. If you wanted one you ordered it just like anyone else, and you payed for it like anyone else. Hope that helps some.

Hello Richard and many Thanks for the explanation of the " P Serialed " guns ! I have read these gun were given as Gifts to Family members and close Friends ,this is why I commented on this idea . Do you happen to know if the P was used whenever a change in production took place as with gauge or different chokes etc. ? Russ

Russ the P was only used on the first couple of orders of 20 Ga guns. It was not used after that. Only on 20's and nothing else. Thanks

My friend just purchased a Repro on the net and when it arrived it was P-0027 so it looks like it was the second P gun produced. Great information Richard, thanks.
