Hell Jan,
1. Yes, I am/was aware that Bobba does not acknowledge a 1902 Swiss Fat Barrel in his fine book. Please see my 2nd. post :
"I am also aware that Mr. Bobba does not specifically include such a variation in his 1991 book."
2. I guess I did miss your disclaimer on page 1 of IL's. My apology for missing this. Your 1914 post seemed to me to sound like a statement of accuracy...so I was a bit confused (as I usually am...).
3. I still "miss" the point of your reference to page 123 in Bobba's book. How is it relevant to my question regarding if any "other" Swiss Fat Barrels exist or have been seen/reported ?
How was/is this germane to my original question regarding a Swiss Fat Barrel...?
4. Finally, I understand that you have no position on the gun in Ralph Shattuck's collection. Thank you for making this statement.
Regards,
Pete
