I sold two parkers at the Fall G&D auction and used the proceeds to fill the slots. :)
Top gun BHE 12ga 32" Acme Steel XF/XF #2 frame 2 7/8" chambers (lettered) circa 1906.
Bottom gun DHE 12ga Titanic Steel F/XF #1 1/2 frame circa 1920.

Wonderful guns, Craig, and I like to think I helped some in getting one of your nice guns from the G&D auction. :)

Beautiful guns, would love one like that DHE...... Nicely done sir!

Beautiful. I've fallen in love with the B Grade guns. I have a similar 32" gun I'm bringing to the Southern to shoot for the first time.

That's a very early Acme barrled gun isn't it?

Yes within a few hundred numbers off the first BH Acme in the records

Mine, I believe, is a couple hundred numbers on the other side with beautifully struck Titanic barrels.

It’s a beautiful gun…and will get out this coming season. I’m glad you decided to part with it, and glad you got those two beauties. Ducks beware!

I believe Acme Steel barrels were first interoduced in about 1903.
