CHE 230160 12 ga 30in bbl
 
Hello,

Trying to determine if anyone would have any insight into a CHE 12 ga numbered 230160 30 inch bbl. The database says built in 1928. The number inquiry form for a letter says they don't have any information on this particular gun, as did Chuck's response to a message I sent him.

New to this game, I ask, are there any other avenue's or resources available to help with a search for the history?

many thanks,

Sam Sellars

Not likely. I also check the G&H database on all letter requests. All you can
do at this point is to go back in history for previous owners.

Thank you!

I was once custodian to CHE 230760 and sadly there was no information on that one either. It was a fully optioned Parker double trap, one of only four known to exist (until mine turned up there were only three) with 30" Acme Steel barrels, and this one may have been the only fully optioned gun to have been made.

Dean this gun has a fat and shortish beavertail. Single selective trigger accorder to some knolwedgeble parker folk who saw it. It has the heavy lug extra metal for a beavertail. Super clean.

Nice! Please show us some pictures.

Now that beavertail forearm is very interesting. Can you shoot a couple of pics of the end of the forend or front of it facing the barrels? And a few shots of the inside of the forend?
