The last ones I saw listed 3 barrel sets A1 had a price of 50K or close to that.....At those numbers I will most probably never own one of them! )-; SXS Ohio

Kenny, I agree with much of what you've written here and I do recall that A-1 Special 28/28/.410 set listed by G & H for $50K. Where did that
"It is thought that only one run of 25 barrels were made in OO frame 410. The final count is not known this project was cut short by the sudden factory close." come from? Is that documented or speculated? And how do we explain the 33 DHE .410s in the Production Chart, are they just the barrels, stand alone guns or are they all 28/.410 DHE sets? Or, another possibility is that the quantity of 33 was mistakenly extrapolated from the Sisley article where he wrote
"Finally, the factory started 133 .410s on the tiny 4/0 frame. They completed 33 of these, and that's when production ceased." But, the problem with this possibility is that the 0000-frame guns were intended to be finished out as BHEs or A-1 Specials, or weren't they???
