I thought the Fleischman A1S was a 20 gauge two-barrel set...? Is there another?

A-1 Spec.
Interesting that it only has one fence on the breech balls, but I am not that well versed on very high grade Parkers. Essentially a one off type of gun and any thing would be possible. Very interesting and beautiful. M

What can I say about that, that gun has just about everything that I could want. Well almost, except the price tag. Good spot Mark on the rib on the bolsters. The A1S typically has three. The word typically is the key.

I handled the 20 gauge when it was on display by Julia's at the Concours d'Elegance at the Vintager's event at Sandanonna about fifteen years ago. It was "refinished" after it sold at Julia's auction and the next time it went to auction it sold for about half the amount it had previously sold for. I will say though, it was a hard-used gun and could certainly have used a proper refinish/resto. .
