The book says 30" and the book also says TI5, not TI6 as the seller originally claimed but now says he's been told it may be a B or grade-5. I think I remember that gun from a while back. One becomes educated quickly in this game . . . or rather, some do.

See for yourselves, 130593

The rib on 130593 is stamped "Titanic". Could the gun have had Damascus barrels originally and been refitted with Titanics by Parker? Most 5s and 6s wear Acme barrels.

Fred, Titanics are correct for the 130's. Look at TPS. The Acme's were not until a couple years later.

Thanks Kurt. My 1918 GHE12 has an ivory front bead and letters with 26" bbls... which have been cut. That's a large bead. Looks in size like one of Galazans.
