8 ga

[charlie cleveland]

i was cleaning the old 8 ga hammer gun i got from mills and just happened to look at the serial no. it is 65145...got a letterthat mills sent off for and let me have it..well i got down the parker bible and looked up the number.yep it was in there just happened to notice there were 6 consective numbered 8 ga s in a row number 65141 through 65146..i think that bill murphy reported these guns came from california some copany ordered them..for sure this old 8 i got from mills that was a silent auction gun came from california.it must have stayed in california because thats were the guy who gave it to the silent auction lived..the gun i have origanaly had 34 inch barrels but sad to say they now are 27 1/2.. they were stub twist barrels..seems like a lot of these old 8 ga s had stub twist barrels...any way wonder if any one else has one of these 6 old guns in this serial block 65141 to 65146...charlie
