Mills, I found another in my safe that might lend some new information to your study. Its a GHE in the 194XXX range and is on a 0 frame. It has 28 inch steel barrels and weighs a whopping 6 lbs. 12 ounces...but still, it has that nice slim frame and handles well.

The 16 gauge 0 frame on Steve Barnett’s site turned out to be a 1 frame .

That does not surprise me.

Like I said, after sn 200,000, I just don't see any 0 frame 16s. You really wish records survived to explain some production decisions made by Parker and the reasoning behind them

A few documents are probably around but they have probably been forgotten or possibly stashed.

I'll throw some specs in to the mix. VH16 0 Frame, 28" barrels, 6lbs 6oz's. Handles like a wand. Ser#173347

That is not the latest observed here, but is among the later group. Sounds like a wonderful gun
