Hi Charlie,
I think I missed the forearm you are talking about. I saw one last week that had the wood and the tip( and was the same grade), but I didn't know the frame size of the gun so I didn't bid. I believe I have a tip now and will keep the existing forearm wood, which isn't the best, but will work for my purposes. I did have alot of fun this afternoon shooting black powder shells through this "new" gun! |

I got my answer through in the research letter today. Looks like barrels are correct.

I know this is an older thread.
However, I was looking through the Parker Story at some production numbers and noticed not many 10 gauge lifter guns were made with 29" barrels(only 2). The ones on this grade 0 lifter are Stub Twist. What would this do to the collectibility of a grade 0 gun? This gun is a well used shooter, but I did buy it because of the 29 inch barrels. By the way, I am assuming they(Parker) rounded down from the 29 1/2 in my letter, which may be wrong on my part(but the Serialization book has the barrels at 29). Do I have something special? If not I still have the black powder shooter I wanted... Thanks, Jay |

I would guess that who ever compiled that list missed that entry in the stock book. If we could find the other 29" guns I could see if they just rounded down. 1/2" increments are rare and I would think inclusion in the chart would be important. Does it add value? In my opinion, little if anything but that's just my thinking.

Thanks Chuck, I should have added that there were also 21 10 gauge lifters with 29" plain twist barrels. I was just curious and maybe just a little hopeful/optimistic.
