One other comment that needs to be addressed is that you state you bought The Serialization book and made a list of all the guns fitting your description in 1908, then quoted a finite number. Someone, I believe Dean, mentioned that generally only high grade guns were listed in the Serialization book. That is a fact, and a lot, maybe the majority, of the lower grade guns are not listed. The serialization book is basically a summation of the existing higher grade guns records, keeping in mind that the records are incomplete and have whole sections missing. If you wnat a closer number of how many possibilities exist, data such as that is contained in The Parker Story.
