I thought I was going to be looking at a 10 gauge with 32" barrels. I assumed when I spoke to the seller over the phone he was wrong on his measurement of the barrels.The seller insisted the barrels were 36". I was a bit confused and thought the gun might be a special order. So I decided to take a couple of hours off from work the next day to take a short ride to see this gun since it piqued my interest. When I first saw the gun, I noticed the large frame immediately and the long barrels. The seller told me his gunsmith looked the gun over and that's where we got his specs including the price. Not sure who his gunsmith is but I'd never bring a gun to him for sure.
When I got the gun home I looked in my Parker Gun Identification and Serialization book to see if the serial number was listed. Yup, sure is on page 453 under serial number 156,970.
Does anyone know where to get shells from or do you have to reload?
