Ah... so if the breech block is unnumbered, it can still have some kind of other numbers then? Or was this part supposed to be numbered to the gun? I haven't found any numbers (yet...) on the front toggle link, so I suppose that the breech block may not be numbered to the gun either.
I might just take the whole gun apart and check the parts for numbers, if nothing else for educational purposes.
