Thanks Harry, I can't wait to read your story - it should prove very interesting.

Austin, I know of a AAH 20 gauge made new with Whitworth Steel barrels and an additional set of Acme 28 gauge barrels as requested by the customer, Henry A. Bishop.

While trolling the gun websites today I bumped into this pretty nice CHE factory two barrel set. http://www.safarioutfittersltd.com/AmericanPage17.htm I assume they did some research to determine that this gun is one of twelve made in this grade. Given the relatively low number of C grades made I'm a little surprised that there were that many documented sets made.

As someone mentioned earlier, second sets of barrels sometimes become separated from the gun... If the current caretaker of DHE #239681 happens to be reading this thread, I have your second set of 12ga 1-1/2 frame 26" ejector barrels... These Remington era barrels were found buried deep in the back of an old gun store/shop in Meriden Ct, and were probably added to the DHE during or after Parker's later Remington period.

Best, CSL
