Maybe the original installer at Parker Bros. was asleep at the switch when he assembled your gun Edgar. Everyone makes mistakes every now and then and it would not have been any different at Parker Bros. Good to see you at Addieville.

Wow, I never thought of that. You might be onto something.Do you suppose there was a lack of sleep, or morale problem at Parker? I have a hammerless 16 with no serial number in the tang groove of the butt stock. I wonder if that was someone else asleep at some switch too, and if they were related to the lock maker who was sleeping at that switch when he assembled my gun. I wonder what that switch controlled.
