Bruce,
Thank you for the information. The next step is ordering a PGCA letter. I sure hope the serial number is correct using a 1 in place of the T. Gary

You might enclose a good picture of the serial number with your letter request. Mark will try his best to find your gun in the records even if he has to try more than one avenue of approach. Good luck.

Its not a T. Parkers don't have T's in the SN. The suggestion repeated several times to order a research letter is absolutely correct.

Philip, I to could not get a letter on ser# A1943 it is a 32" damascus gun in 12ga. Mark was most helpful in trying to read the old pages but they were just to faint to read. I do have a letter from the grandson of the original owner. most interesting as it tells where the gun was used and for what. It spent its entire life in northern P.A.
