Jerry,
Yes, EVERY part has an eagle 2 proof. That does not include springs, grips and pins. If you have Mr. Gibson's book, the most interesting proof is on page 95. Under subheading (B), he shows a proof on which he states "The rarest of the Stage II markings" He goes on to say this proof is seen only on 1938 models. That proof is on the side of the receiver of this 1938.
Yes, it is all matching. I have questions about the barrel being original. As I said earlier, the witness marks do not align. Plus the serial number stamping appears to be a severe double stamp.
Charlie Justman had it listed for $3000.00 on his website. When I called him, he offered a substantial discount without my asking. I think that's a good price; maybe I'm wrong.
Mike
