I looked hard and long at this gun, but decided to wait on another upcoming auction. Congratulations on your new hammer gun. I have and use 8 hammer (3 Parkers) guns and enjoy using each. Enjoy. Post pictures, especially of the barrels, when you receive your new treasure.

Today I received my new hammergun, which was supposed to have mismatched serial numbers. After closer inspection, there appears to be a connection between the two different serial numbers. The receiver/frame is marked 15,056, while the forend is marked 14,305. As shown in the attached picture, the barrels are marked with BOTH numbers. Interesting! I will order a letter and see if there is a story.

I've got a SSBP off a BHE that had two serial numbers stamped on it. I was curious so I sent for a letter. It said the SSBP was provided by the buyer to be reused and a discount was given. Perhaps the action and butt stock was lost and the forend and barrels were sent in to be reused? Or maybe Dad had a two barrel set and getting a new action and butt for the second set allowed each son to inherit their own piece of Dad's favorite? I'd be interested in hearing what the letter said if you get one. Hopefully the letter would have a bit of info on both serial numbers.

I'd sure like to see pictures of the Laminated pattern of the barrels. That one should be stamped with a P on the forward area of the right barrel flat.
