I don't know about the gun with the sideways letter, but I have been hunting the Askins ten gauge for years, and now I know what to look for. I know the serial number and now I know to look for the saw marks, barrels and stock. The Colonel was a cocky soldier and is the kind of guy who would slam his aluminum airline approved gun case onto the hood of his rental car at a shoot, doing hundreds of dollars of damage to the rental company. He would also saw the barrels off a gun he didn't pay for. However, I seem to remember that the ten gauge Parker belonged to the Captain. I will check back.
