Swing and a miss on a letter

[Bill Murphy]

No mystery. If the bores are what you say, the gun was rebarrelled and the rebarrelling is mentioned in a missing book. When you sell a gun to an informed buyer, he looks at and measures the gun and uses the books and the letters as "related information". If a 176,000 range gun is rebarrelled, it is very likely that the rebarrelling occurred after the end of the order book period. Your gun is at the very end of the order book period.

Thanks Bill. That has to be it. FWIW, the chokes are 4.5" long.

Here's a pic:

Tom,

Mystery solved! I screwed up 26" barrels it is. Revised letter goes out tomorrow. First time I've screwed up this year

If anyone gets a letter back that doesn't closely resemble the gun you have, just e-mail me and I can double check the records.

Great. I was trying to figure this one out and was scratching my head. That's pretty easy to do because I have no hair.
