We now know where 91964 is, but the other was 91584, and according to the SN&ID book, it was 28". Interestingly, the next gun, 91585, was a 27" CH, 16gauge; very likely also bought by Mr. DePauw. Clearly, the man knew exactly what he wanted, and nothing else would suffice. Where did you find the information indicating 91584 was 29", and not 28"?
I also wonder if 91584 (and maybe 91585) were similarly engraved?
I have to say, irrespective of your gun's present condition, it may be the most unusual and exciting Parker I have seen in quite some time. I'm just hoping Deb will show it to us next week.
I think it's ironic that with a 13 5/8" LOP, you may never get it away from her, because you won't be able to shoot it anyway.

Edgar,
The 29" gun I referenced was 90585 not 91584 and the info was in TPS.

Nice gun either way. It just goes to show that if it looks too good to be true, sometimes it is actually true

I just bought 91585. It was originally shipped to Selma, AL. Was searching SN and found this thread.

Wow! Great find. Congratulations

I was reading this thread and came to the post describing the different guns. When I saw the description of 91585 I thought it would be great to find out where that gun was, and even greater to be able to own it.

I would like to know more about where you found it and additional information on that one. Pictures would be nice.

Congratulations.

91964 has interesting after-market ejectors, different on for each set of barrels.
