Lots of various sources, but all serial numbers have been verified by the PGCA Research Chairman.

I don't know if we're all on the same page here.
The subject gun is a Top Action Titanic Steel barreled gun with a barrel length of 32 inches, apparently one of only two known to have been made in that particular configuration and is one of only possibly 6 Grade 5 Top Action Titanic Steel barreled known to have been made. .

I think that Dean has the same question that I do. Terry is a more than good friend and I trust his research, if I know what it is.

I have verified that there are at least 8 Grade 5 Titanic Steel barreled exposed hammer guns.
Six of them have verified 32" barrels, according to the Parker records. |

Terry, will you be revealing your source for this data in an upcoming Parker Pages article? .

And, it's a helluva lot cheaper (and cooler) than a similar configuration in a Purdey!
