Michael.
Beautiful example. Lots (relatively speaking) of 1900 American Eagles around but it is difficult to find a 1900 Commercial in the US. It is really interesting to see an overlap in features in these early pieces. I would not expect #4160 to have a Type I thumb safety, and yet I have seen other pieces that late that also have the Type I. My 1900 Commercial is serial number 3453 and it has a Type II as do others with serial numbers lower than yours. Makes it hard to nail down the transition.

An extremely handsome piece of machinery!

Very nice indeed. I recently joined the 1900 club myself.

Cogratulations, it's really a nice gun, are the grips original? My only doubt is the type of thumb safety on such a high serial number; for instance I've got a commercial Swiss with that sort of safety but has got the s/n 763 (thin button frame 1st series 1st variation)
