The Serialization book said my 24" 16 was 'sposed to be 28". I got a letter that also said 28", and I was convinced from the physical evidence that the gun was right as rain. There was order book and stock book info, so I accepted what the letter said. Was I too trusting of the letter? Isn't the data available to the researcher the same data that was used to publish the Ser. Book?
However, I'm not going to believe the book on that GH you were holding last Saturday, Dean. It says the gun is an ejector gun, and I don't know how someone could chop out ejectors, add to extractor fore ends, and remove trips from the action.
The table on the top right of page 268 of TPS says there were NO 24" Steel barreled PH guns.
Do you trust TPS? Look at the lovely 20 bore hammer C grade with Titanic Steel barrels on all of page 295, and then go to the tables on page 298 and halfway down the left side of the page it says the ONLY TL C grade with Titanic Barrels was one 12 gauge.
