OK, that clears that up for me. Without pics, did not realize the "1917/20" was a literal transcription of the stamping, complete with slash, but understood it as the much more commonly rendered two separate dates, one over the other.
If there is only a lone "1920" stamp, would one way to tell a 1920 mf'd receiver from a 1920 property stamped receiver be the regular centering and alignment of the factory rolls stamped digits v. the dates with digits that LOOK hand stamped?
