The BHE .410 Dave saw in Seattle many years ago does in fact have 32” barrels and a ventilated rib. I have seen the gun and at one time it was in the Robert E. Peterson collection in California. It is logical to assume it orginted in Seattle where Dave originally saw the gun and migrated to California. It is one of three presently known to exist and the only one with 32” barrels and ventilated rib. 😊

In my letters from Emil Linder in the sixties, he talks about the BHE .410, but does not mention a serial number.

Looking at the Emil Linder BHE-Grade .410-bore again in Larry Baer's books. On page 73 of Volume II, Larry states "Other than an AAHE .410 I have seen, but am unable to show you, this is probably the best of the .410 Parkers. It is a mint BHE which is also discussed in Volume I."
