Thomas, I assume you meant "1400 in all gauges", not "1400 in all grades". The P Grade steel barrel guns are the hardest to pin down for production numbers because there are no order books available for research and many of the stock books of the era are missing. The figures for P grade steels guns in The Parker Story are a wild guess at best. The totals are "extrapolated" as the authors describe them. We don't know what the total of actually identified guns is, but it isn't as high as the extrapolated total in the book. It may be way higher if the estimate was not on the mark. Too bad, all we know is that steel barrel P grades are a bit scarce, especially the 20, and of course, the 10.
