Thank you Mr. Bishop.

I don't usually post an image of the stock book entry for someone's gun but I want to make an exception for this gun. Rob's gun is the top entry and can you make out if it's a 2 or a 0? I've shown entries below his gun for comparison purposes. I did make a mistake on the LOP and weight of the gun, the letter should say LOP 14 1/4" and 7 3/4 pounds which would be light for a 10ga. gun. Also look at the pellet count of a 12ga. gun vs. a 10ga. gun. Not much difference. Many times a 12ga. gun will have a lower pellet count vs. a 10ga. gun. I hope everyone now knows why I hate doing letters on real early Parkers.

Rob, either measure the chamber size or see if a 10ga. or 12ga. shell fits properly in the chamber.

I'll send you a new letter.

Mr. Bishop, Thanks for all your hard work. It is for sure a 10 gauge or someone turned it into one. A Rst 12 gauge shell falls past the extractor and a 10 gauge fits perfect.

Thanks again,
Robert Marshall
