Dean or Autumn Daze. Can this gun's serial number be checked in the book(s) only to see if that phrase is listed for this serial number ? or do I have to order a letter to find that out ??

You need to order a letter... but be fore-warned - A research letter for a non-member is $100, but it costs only $40 to join the PGCA and then the letter is only $40 so you save $20 by joining and the other benefits alone make the $40 membership fee well worth it.
You get four quarterly issues of Parker Pages, our "newsletter' which is actually a nice 48-page color glossy magazine loaded with great technical articles and shooting/hunting stories. Then there is the "Members Only" section of this website where you can buy & sell guns of all kinds, etc., etc. |

Hey Dean and Autumn Days. I went ahead and joined and also ordered a letter for this gun. I had a question about your earlier comments reference the gun you saw sometime in the past with the identical rod going through the head. Did you say that gun also had been lettered and it showed a comment of "pin stock" in the book? Or were you guys drawing a conclusion about a documented gun after seeing pics of my gun?

So the gun you saw which had the same rod through the head AND which is documented as a "pin stock" looked identical to my gun ? Sorry, just want to clarify

Vince, going strictly by memory (the second thing to deteriorate with age) I believe so... but can't swear to it. I do remember the discussion here on the forum with pictures and the fact that there was something in the order book referencing the pinned stock head.

Guys, the said gun is a 1930 gun. Only the Order Book will give info on a stock repair if it was returned to PB. When did the Order Books end?????? That's right, 1919. The only chance would be if it's in the last Repair Order Book but I wouldn't hold my breath. Sorry!

Thanks Chuck. I'm sure the one that Dave and I are recalling was certainly done prior to 1919.
