C 10 C 11 C12
Richard; I have two $135 grades, a C10 and a C12. A good friend has a $250 grade C11. I think these barrels were purchased semi finished by Parker Bros before King joined as barrel contractor and superintendent. Note that many elevens appear in the 2000 serial , few in the threes, and fewer in the fours. This was probably due to King's beginning of successful barrel boring at Parker, but using up prior stock. Does anyone have an eleven with King's breech?
It should be noted that King's patent boring process tooling bored .750 bores in twelve ga from somewhere around s/n 5000 to 70000.
Best, Austin
