According to The Parker Story there were only twelve 14-ga. DH damascus hammerless guns ever built, six of them were produced with 30" barrels.

LOL
Actually, Bruce, I was trying to make some excelsior-like shavings to mix with wood glue and use as a wood filler for the hollowed-out stock on Kathy's Repro . . . . . . it's a long story but it had a very short ending . . . It was a calculated risk . . . I simply miscalculated. |

thanks guys for the info.. i think your right about the gun being a 14 gauge. a 12 gauge shell will not go into the gun and a 16 gauge sits in very loose. any idea how many 14`s were made or the value.?

Greg above, mentions there only being 12 DH 14 ga. guns made, he got the info from the Parker story. I would think the 14 ga. would add some significant value for some collectors. Bob

With the wear to the skeleton butt plate I would be surprised if the gun were still 14 gauge. Where would one get enough ammo to use the gun that much? David

It looks like a G grade buttstock but it has the silver oval. Could be an economical factory job - lift the trigger guard and check the serial number stamped into the wood.
