Here's yet another 12ga. Parker Reproduction BHE, S/N 12-0056, claimed to be the only BHE Steel Shot Special ever produced.

The buyer of this gun will certainly be purchasing a rare gun as we don't often encounter a 12ga. BHE w/28" bbls., 3", IC/M with double triggers. However, it is not the only BHE claimed to be a SSS ever produced, there have been others as well. One of them, BHE 12-0098, was previously discussed in these threads:
https://parkerguns.org/forums/showth...&highlight=BHE

Pictured below are a couple of pics of BHE 12-0056 currently listed for sale on GI:

(Note: This gun does bring up a couple of questions:
1. Why no "SS" as part of the S/N?
2. Are the choke areas chrome lined?
3. Are the choke leades longer as has been reported of the SSS than those of standard Repros?)
