The Lost and Found List

Have a DHE 216201 and am looking for barrel set #1 which is listed in Ser. and ID as being 28" on a 1 1/2 frame.
Cheers Bob

Thanks to Jim DiSpagno, forend, barrels and frame have all been reunited. Now we just need to find an early stock to complete it.

Good for you David !

[Dean Romig]

Hold on a minute Dave. That doesn't appear to be the standard Twist pattern seen on a Grade 1 hammerless gun. What is the serial number of the barrels please?

Maybe Drew can educate us on that pattern.... Drew?

Can't get anything by Dean can ya. I have been patiently waiting for a PH. I hope this one is worthy, so far it has been a challenge. Its taking a trip up north for some well deserved R and R. Dave

[Dean Romig]

Thanks Dave. That's a rare bird indeed.

The letter says Laminated steel?
That is not laminated in the pictures is it?

[Dean Romig]

Yes it is George. There were/are various patterns of Laminated Steel depending on the era of manufacture because of the various manufacturers or sources Parker Bros. bought them from.

Interesting also is the fact that it is lister as a PT in the Ser book.

[George M. Purtill Member #28]

Very pretty pattern for what people normally think of as dull Laminated steel.

[Holeshot]

I am curious how many other ph guns have laminated instead of twist?
It probably is one of the latest laminated ph's.
