I just picked up #87238. A CH from 1897 with 30" Titanic barrels and a straight grip. The gun is in the book as such and the gun just before it has a identical configuration. These are two rather early fluid steel barreled C grades. Two guns with straight grips and the then brand new "black barrels" in Grade 4 (another 30" CH 12g is alongside them but with a pistol grip) not the most common of late 19th Century Parkers...I've sent Mark a request for a letter...it would be too silly to think they might be proper "pair". Anyway, without 87237 poor lonely 87238 could never be a pair of anything
