Is this the earliest known SBT?

Why aren't the barrels marked Acme Steel?....Dave?

I suspect it is because it is such an early SC.... possibly the first.

There are three singles earlier than yours in the Serialization Book, but there are many missing numbers in the 176,000 and 175,000 range that may include more single barrels. Your gun does not say Acme Steel because early singles did not have steel markings like the later ones. Your gun should have a T on the barrel flat, signifying that your barrel is made of Titanic Steel.

Meant to upload these also. Although a little out of focus you can clearly see the "T"

I would send the info on this gun to Josh Loewensteiner. The "Parkers Found" listing in the Parker Pages lists the earliest known SC Parker as serial number 176798. Your gun precedes this by 553 serial numbers.
