Just to clarify the January 14, 2012 google hit on my serial number, courtesy of Jack Cronkhite, Jack's hit was a very small window of opportunity. Bud Stanley's website chat rolls over on almost a daily basis if it is used and Bud does not allow any rehash of previous chat. Bud doesn't get a lot of activity, so the "86988" post remained active on his site for almost three months, when it would normally rotate out of google range in a day, again, if it is used. Three months before his hit and just a few days later, "86988 parker shotgun" would only appear as posts on Dave Weber's site and the PGCA site. I had been posting mentions of 86988 on gun sites and searchiing on google since before 2006. By January of 2012, I had given up on google and rested my hopes on the PGCA forum. Only Jack took a shot at google after I had tried google for probably six or ten years and failed. I hope this explains what a shot Jack took and succeeded. The PGCA forum takes the credit for reuniting the barrels of my DH #74151, along with Gary Carmichael, but that was a piece of cake compared to Jack's effort. Thanks both of you, and thanks also to John Davis who turned one great original gun into two by selling me the wonderful DH back end that fit my CH barrels with almost no effort. I love these PGCA guys who will send a gun or parts across the country for no payment on the chance that they will fit your gun. Wait until you guys see the next one. Linda and I will see you at the Northeast. Thanks for enjoying this thread so far.

You understand, of course, that you have to be here to read the tag attached to the gun.

Ok, just give me some advance notice so I can put a little gas money away...or we can get a head start and you can just bring it to the Southern or Hausmanns we can avoid the crowds that way
