I received my Research Letter today and found that my gun was ordered by J.D. Weed & Co. of Savannah, GA on January 18, 1917 and shipped on September 13, 1917, wow a nine month wait. According to Parker Bros. Order Book No. 95, it was a VH Hammerless, 16 gauge. It featured Vulcan steel barrels with a length of 28 inches. The stock configuration was a pistol grip. The requested chokes were RH modified, LH full. Expensive $45.65, LOL.
Accordering to Parker Bros. Order Book No. 98 the gun was returned on November 5, 1918 by J.D. Weed & Co. for credit.
Appears this gun sat in their store for over one year and was then returned for some reason. Perhaps someone else ordered a 16 Gauge VH and wanted open chokes and that is why this gun is Cyl. & I/C. I am going to have the chokes checked in this gun to see if they are what I was told (Cyl. & I/C) or perhaps it is still Mod & Full.
