What are the odds? Poor #169257...

Ya, If the book is right it's a real shame. But if the price is right it would be one hell-of-a gun. Those muzzles are suspect but we have seen guns leave the factory clipped to fill an order.Trouble is I just don't know....

You just have to have the gun in hand. However, a factory letter may prove that the order book specifies a 36" gun and maybe the stock book was misread when the serialization book was put together. More pictures, more use of the micrometer, PGCA letter.

Don, what's the serial #.

Mark, It's at the top of the thread 169257

[Bill Murphy]

Thanks for getting into this, Mark. The fellow doesn't seem to want to deal in PGCA letters. I asked for a scan of the letter on the 14 gauge and that I was very interested. He replied "There is no letter.".

[Autumn Daze]

He states in his text about the above gun that he ordered a letter.Maybe it's not in hand yet.

The order book has 10/38. The stock book is missing. I have seen cases were the length of barrels does not match the order and the shipping time is a few days after the order. This would indicate to me that they filled the order with a gun in stock. This gun took 6 months to ship so I supect it was 38 inches when it left PB.

Freebee for the holidays.
