Chuck, can you comment on there having been 5 or 6 of these Titanic barreled guns made.
Do we kno the serial numbers of the 5 accounted for in the tables in "The Parker Story"?

Dean, this can get very confusing! From the appendix in TPS they list 5 TI5 hammer guns. S/N's 91632,94269,102517,102518, and 112752. Notice that Edgar's example 108658 is not listed in the appendix but we do have the order book for that gun, therefore 108658 should have been included in the Serialization Book and appendix but wasn't. Mark's gun 92850 is listed in the appendix as being a hammerless gun so it wasn't included as 1 of the 5 known TI5 hammer guns.
From what we now know, there were at least 7 TI5 guns made. Am I thinking correctly?

I believe you are. If I'm putting it all together correctly, TPS is incorrect in the statement that there were 5, 4 at 30" and 1 at 32". It would now appear there were at least 7; 4 with 30" barrels and 3 with 32" barrels
