Hi Doc,
Sorry...I missed your last questions for a few days...
Yes...the local 1902 carbine has an intermediate width on the grip safety. The toggle (1902 style) was also blank and missing the "DWM"...
Owner thinks the carbine might be a pattern room gun that got sold eventually...but just a WAG...
When you are free, let's make plans to have you come over to this side of the Bay and see this piece in person...
Regards,
Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
