CH Opportunity

[Fishtail]

So you have a CH with factory Titanic barrels. I wouldn't get too bent out of shape over finding the Bernard barrels. It's not like the gun is a piece of junk without them.

Here's my opinion - there were plenty of guns which were sent back to Parker for new barrels which usually were fluid steel. The old barrels were most likely placed in an old keg that stood in a corner and every so often was emptied out by the scrap man.

It's fun to think every gun that received a second set of barrels wound up as a two barrel set but I'd guess a lot of times the second set was bought because the first set had been blown up, run over, etc. and no one spent a lot of time worrying about them.

Congratulations. You have a very cool gun. Think of it this way, you just substituted one asset (cash) for another asset (C-grade Parker). They print more cash every day, but a shotgun like that is a rare bird. The gun will hold its value, unlike our current dollar.
