Not only books missing but quite possible the counts of the ones you have records for could be off because of human error .

Here we go again. Errata Sheet Version 3, 6/6/01 gives us
"Page 279, Table at lower left -- "GRADE 2 HAMMERLESS GUNS WITH DAMASCUS STEEL BARRELS" -- The column with statistics for the 20 gauge is incorrect. A total of 446 hammerless doubles of 20-gauge were made with barrel lengths as follows: (length/count) - (32/3), (31/1), (30/49), (28/244), (27/3), (26/145), (24/1). These changes will effect the totals in various summary tables."

Geez, this is like herding cats.:banghead:

Yeah Bill, while you were at Wildwood after WW1 were men still wearing the one piece bathing suits and I'm assuming the Ford had bias belted tires and right about now you were pulling the snow tires for some Sunday drives in the country on those Firestone's with summer tread.:corn:

“Here we go again”

Correct. Thanks Dave. You and others have pointed out this errata sheet corrected error many times. Damascus barreled twenty gauge guns are not rare but can be found through waiting and searching. Twenty gauge guns became more popular after WWI as cartridges became more effective and hunters changed from meat hunting to sport hunting. Few Damascus or twist barreled guns were made after WWI.

20/26 CHE Turkish Star Damascus ( 1903)

Charlie that sounds like a beauty. I'd like to find a D grade Damascus 20.

According to TPS only 8 C grade 20's were built with 26 inch Damascus barrels. You have one Bruce as do I so that only leaves 6 to find:whistle:

What should a damascus 20 with 28” barrels weight?

It depends on the bore diameter. I heard a rumor that Daryl Corona is compiling a list of bore diameters, but that is only a rumor. He is also becoming somewhat proficient at "herding cats".

Daryl, #71,179, .625 to .630. #150,363, .620. #150,881, .625. All Damascus guns.

There at least 4, i will be shooting a gh 20, 4 iron damascus ar the Southern
