1917 Artillery help?

Cheesemaker · 08-17-2013, 02:19 AM

The rear sight does have a fixed V notch, it is not adjustable side to side.

The barrel, front sight, and receiver has serial number 7065 i (65),
under the rear sight has 23 H around the set screw,
up under the rear sight in the well has J 2365,
and the frame has 3677 h (77),
and the toggle has 44.

That is all the numbers I can see, without tearing it down.

Thank you all for helping me. I've gotten so much more info, and some info is backing up what my gunsmith told me.

Please keep giving me info on it. I really need to know what I have, and its overall value.
