I can't wait to see pictures of this wonderful reunion. As I have searched all over the 50 states I have not found my bernard barrels for my 12 ga. I suppose you must hope that eventually they pop up if they haven't found a new home. Great story!

Hey, Mark, the letter from Commander Gunther is great, but do you have a PGCA letter to possibly add to the provenance? Maybe we can confirm the model number of your case. The model number is mentioned on the order for my CH. It is the #38 which is a leather covered shellback case. The "shellback" refers to the provision in the lid for loose ammunition. I haven't looked at my #38 case for years, but will drag it out for Kevin to work his magic.

It's 101184, it was an exhibition built c grade built for display purposes "per Parker letter", it's a beautiful gun that at some point was fitted with vickers steel barrels. I just wish to find the originals at any cost. It's just about restoring a classic.

That's odd... 101184 is shown as having been made with Acme Steel barrels, does the letter state otherwise?

Thanks Paul. That's another example of the importance of getting a research letter as opposed to simply relying on the information contained in the Identification & Serialization book.
