The crossbolt was introduced about 1915. Baker Gun & Forging sold their gun business to H.& D. Folsom in 1919, and it was renamed Baker Gun Co. VERY few Paragons were made after that.

The Baker Paragon that I was looking at sold two days ago. Nice shotgun and I'm sure the new owner loves it, as he should. There is another Paragon for sale. I'm also looking at a Greener that Sherman Bell owned. I have been a fan of the late Mr. Bell for decades and I miss his writings. I saved about 20 years of copies of Double Gun magazine which is chocked full of articles written by Mr. Bell. He was a wonderful shotgun guy.

Is there a contact for Daryl? I have visited www.bakercollectors.com many times and it is excellent, but just the last couple of days it seems to automatically redirect to a .cafe website about artisan pastries, like it has been spoofed or something. It would be nice to get that link back again.
