Actual vs. Book - Barrel Length

[Jay Oliver]

I know this is an older thread.

However, I was looking through the Parker Story at some production numbers and noticed not many 10 gauge lifter guns were made with 29" barrels(only 2). The ones on this grade 0 lifter are Stub Twist. What would this do to the collectibility of a grade 0 gun? This gun is a well used shooter, but I did buy it because of the 29 inch barrels. By the way, I am assuming they(Parker) rounded down from the 29 1/2 in my letter, which may be wrong on my part(but the Serialization book has the barrels at 29).

Do I have something special? If not I still have the black powder shooter I wanted...

Thanks,

Jay

I would guess that who ever compiled that list missed that entry in the stock book. If we could find the other 29" guns I could see if they just rounded down. 1/2" increments are rare and I would think inclusion in the chart would be important. Does it add value? In my opinion, little if anything but that's just my thinking.
