Rare BHE .410 4/0-frame sighting

[Wild Skies]

When taking another look at the 4/0-frame BHE .410 in the above link I cannot say with absolute certainty that the DHE engraved BHE that was shown in Vegas didn't have the single bead, too. As you can see, the bead appears a little different on the 4/0-frame than on the larger frames.

Yes, the entire bead and ball area is inletted into the frame on the 0000 frame gun. It is very different from the 00 frame configuration. The gun in the auction pictures is probably a Robert Petersen gun and was the buy of the century in Parker Repros. I have no idea who owns it now.

Can you believe the auction site predicted it would sell for $3000-$6000 !?
