Here's a pic of the subject of this thread's serial number. It has been reported here on the website, as well has others, stating that there were only 9 .410 BHEs ever built, this gun's serial is B410-0052 . . . how do we explain that?

I think the 9 figure is low and the 52 figure is high. However, quite a few 0000 frame guns were retained by the Skeuse family for later finishing. Dean, Geoffroy Gournet and I measured the pin separation of the 0000 frame guns at the Allentown show some years ago and arrived at the same conclusion you did. The 000 and the 0000 have identical pin separations.
