The first 16 gauge I attempted to buy lettered as a 1 1/2 frame gun , but when I physically looked at it the barrels indicated 1 frame and the barrels had been sleeved . And of course it didn’t come home with me .

Then that means they made at least 3 of them. Thanks for the information.

Well, the tables in TPS should be able to give you an approximate total number across grades for 32” 16g guns. And then from there you can speculate on how many may be 0 frames vs 1 frames.

About three or four years ago while in Dave Trevallion’s vasement workshop I spied a looong barreled, straight grip Parker with Damascus barrels. It was a gun he had done some work on but the owner hadn’t paid him and there had sat for the duration.
It was a 32” GHE in exceptionally nice condition. I offered, on the basis of ‘mechanic’s lein’ to buy the gun but he said he couldn’t sell it to me as he didn’t need to end up in litigation but he would reach out to the owner yet again. The owner would not allow Dave to sell it and would send Dave a check. Turns out that Dave had to wait another year to be paid and he fibally sent the gun back to the owner… (who had actually forgotten he had ever sent the gun to Dave in the first place). Funny business this ‘gun repair’ stuff. .

Reggie, there were at least a dozen made with even longer than 32" barrels, esp. in the hammer gun era. I have a set of 34" O frame 16 ga hammer gun barrels, and have an O frame 16 hammer gun. Unfortunately, those barrels are in very poor shape , and probably beyond repair. I had borrowed Brett Hoops TPS and remember seeing a run of long barreled O frame guns.
