Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Your linked RHO 20ga. A-1 Special is a factory engraved example and without a doubt a real beauty!
I believe the short answer to your question is no. Unless someone comes forward that has access to the remaining Parker Reproduction records and brings to light an exact number of A-1 Specials by gauge, we'll have to go with the production chart shown earlier in this thread and published in The Parker Story. That number is 150 A-1 Specials with factory engraving in all gauges (12, 20 and 20/16ga. combos) were built.
If one were to estimate and use the 3:1 ratio of 20 to 12 gauge DHE-Grade Parker Reproductions produced (certainly debatable if we can or can't) and there were ~150 total A-1s in all gauges, there's likely less than 100 20ga. factory engraved A-1s in existence. The linked RHO gun at #87 was probably near the end of the 20ga. A-1 Special factory engraved offerings.
