Paragon 1124 shows in my notes from about 1980 when it was owned by a Mr. Johnson in Oregon. Later the frame was re case colored and eventually the late Russ Ruppell of near St. Louis owned it. Russ put on a new forend wood and buttplate and may have corrected some problem at one muzzle.

A 16 gauge in the 1909 Paragon model is rare, but the gun's alterations detract. Originally the gun had 30 inch barrels.
