This one appears to be very very early production.

To my way of thinking a standard 12-ga. Repro w/28" bbls., having 3" chambers and choked IC/M is not a Steel Shot Special unless it also has "SS" factory stamped as part of the serial number and the choke area is chrome lined. You're free to come up with a looser definition if you'd like, but that's mine.

I agree with Greg. To me its like the Parker Skeet gun. There are many pre-Remington skeet kinda configured guns but the only true skeet guns were marketed and built by Remington.

From the info posted on the Serial Numbers of SSS guns it just dawned on me that they were numbered separate from the general run of 12 GA guns.

Bob,I do not think that they were numbered separately other than the 12SS prefix.When we placed the order for the 350 steel shot special guns they did not come in all at once.Nor did they reserve a block of serial numbers for these guns.We got them in batches of 25 to 50 guns at the time.I may be wrong on this,but I think you will find SS marked guns all through the first 2 years of 12 gauge production.

This should be easy . . . Has anyone seen or know of a bona fide Steel Shot Special with a serial number higher than 12SS-00350? If so, what is that gun's serial number and can you verify it with pics?
