Last year I acquired a nice Meriden 12 ga. with 28 inch barrels. the sidelocks on the gun were engraved exactly as one appearing in a DGJ article. MIne is marked on the watertable K28 and on the other side of the table 35. The barrels are marked as Krupp steel Essen. As I truly like the gun, I recently acquired another Meriden....this one is a twin to the other but has 32 inch barrels. the water table is marked K32 and the other side as 35. the barrels are also marked as Krupp steel Essen. Both guns are double trigger auto-ejector models.
Now the questions. After acquiring a 1910 Meriden catalog that advertised their guns as models A, B, C, D, E and F ...I am lost to how to identify my guns. The catalog shows engraving on the sidelocks but not clear enough to compare to my guns. There is no alphabetical markings on either gun other than the "K " which I believe means Krupp as it is accompanied by the correct barrel length markings of 28 and 32. Any ideas??????
