I understand that but it doesn't explain why numbers show up on one list (short barrel list) as a 28ga., but those same numbers are not shown in the cumulative list of all 28ga. guns.

Harold, I don't have the gun in hand yet, and what pictures I have belong to the seller. I have a return agreement if I'm not happy with it.

Anyone ever put together a book with thousands of data points?

Edger, I know it's not a Parker but I recently had the same experience with a Browning Superposed. Contacted the Browning Historical to document my guns. I was notified the serial number on one of mine didn't exist. Photos were exchanged and Browning Found a clerical error was made in Q 4 of 1966 and then was able to document my gun.
