Pete,

No, what I was referring to was the distinctive way the horizontal polishing at the top of the side plate meets the vertical polishing of the plate's face at a diagonal line. The Gale Morgan restorations I have seen continue the vertical polish to the top of the side plate.

I can't imagine that this would be a "signature", and of course I don't know about the larger number of his guns that I haven't examined, but when I am presented with a "Gale Morgan Restoration" its the first thing I look for.
