My 172,662 is probably the last "production" hammer gun, probably 1917. There were a small group of hammer guns assembled in a somewhat later serial number range (174,055 to 174,058) for shipment to the Orient, if I remember correctly. There may be some comment about these guns in The Parker Story. The order book entry for these guns may give more detail. I have the order in my files, but it isn't easy to access. Big bore guns, like these four, shipped to the Orient, are assumed to be for the use of whalers.
