For those interested and in the spirit of sharing information, the information I received from Bob Beach of Griffin & Howe on Parker .410 Skeet gun number 241576 (the only AHE .410 ever known to have been made) is as follows. There is more in the form of pictures of the gun that I may or may not find, or even have, but if I find them I will share them also,
Incidentally, this H.H. Barnard who ordered this .410 Skeet gun 241576 may also be the Barnard who ordered the .410 SKEET-ER two-barrel set that I once owned. The G&H records show that buyer as Barnard as well.
