I could be quite satisfied with that as well as long as it’s fluid steel barrels with 3 1/2” chambers

More than just a couple of us have forgotten that multi barrel sets are not allowed. In the spirit of simplicity, we should stick with the one barrel set rule. Anyone can throw a hammer into the thread by ordering a nine barrel set.

Your order has been received and has been put on "rush" status. I have personally selected a blank for the stock that will accept well the 32 LPI checking you desire. I'm confident you will be pleased. We look forward to delivering your gun as per your order. Thank you again, Sincerely, Garry L Gordon (on behalf of Parker Bros.)

Whew! I was hoping someone would remember this was a one gun, one barrel set question. I'm going to have a dickens of a time sorting the results. Thanks, Bill, for the reminder.

Shall I consider this a substitute order?

Mr. Gordon,
I have received news from the order department that only one set of barrels may be requested. While this news is disturbing please complete my order with the 26 inch barrels as originally requested. In regards to the color photographs I have been working with the Eastman Kodak company on color photographs and while these might not be real clear we are getting better every day. Thank you for the prompt response regarding my order even though it can't be completed as requested. Perhaps I will have sufficient funds to order a lower grade gun with the 30 inch barrels. We all know two guns are better than one. Sincerely, C.O.B.

On behalf of the Order Dept., and most assuredly myself, I apologize for the confusion with your order. The 26 inch barrels are already being struck, and the work on your gun is underway. Your excellent colored photographs have received high praise from everyone in our engraving department and I have personally examined the preliminary engraving work — I am confident you will be pleased. Please, again, accept my apologies for the confusion with your original order. Should you decide to place an additional order, we pledge to give it our utmost attention. Faithfully, Garry L. Gordon (On behalf of Parker Bros.)
