You
will get the most information on your Parker if we have both
the Order Book and Stock Book.
-
You
will get the least amount of information if we only have the
Remington IBM card.
-
The
Order Books start in January 1877 and end in November 1919.
If your gun was made either before 1877 and after
1919 you will not get information on who ordered the gun.
We do not have all the Order books so there are gaps
in the records.
-
The
Stock Books start at S/N 1500 and end at S/N 238934.
Most of the information between S/N 1500 and 1799 is
unreadable. Starting
at S/N 1800 we start to see more information including
patterning information.
Frame sizes are not listed until S/N 213778.
Patterning information between 1800 and 213777 is hit
and miss due to the way the original Stock book was copied.
There is no patterning information from S/N 213778 to
the last S/N found in the Stock book which is S/N 238934.
We do not have all the Stock books so there are gaps
in the records.
-
If
we have only the IBM card, you will get the grade, gauge,
barrel length, shipped date, and options such as single
trigger, vent rib, and beavertail forend.
You may or may not get who ordered the gun.
If we have the name, it’s just the name, no
address.
-
We
also have some Work Order Tags (WOT).
If we have a Work Order Tag for your gun, that
information will be added to the research letter.
You can purchase the tag.
Information on how to buy a WOT is found in the
research letter link on the home page.
