Proof marks on LP 08 boards.

George Anderson · 01-07-2005, 03:36 PM

Who made the stock irons?
Who fitted the wood to the iron?
At what point in the process is the stock matched up with the pistol?
Is the crown/M on a Navy stock a proof or an acceptance mark?

Lastly, I have a number of matched rigs where the stock carries no acceptance stamp. I hold all these as suspect. Does anyone have a full matched rig where the stock is not stamped who is absolutely certain that the parts are all original to the rig? [/B][/QUOTE]

The silence is deafening.
