No. It letters from Mr. Conrad as a 12-gauge ordered June 1889 --

It is the gun that went back to Parker Bros. for a set of 32-inch Vulcan Steel 20-gauge barrels, forearm and both sets of barrels got the 1910 bolt plate. I estimate that happening after 1919 as the rib legend on the Vulcan barrels is CT, U.S.A. and before 1926 as they don't have the PARKER BROS. OVERLOAD PROVED stamps.

Any chance the recently acquired books might address the 20-gauge barrels?
