    Fred, a lot of late night deals spread equipment around over the years. So where it wound up doesn't always conform to the text books, right ?? Ha/.

      Thanks Rick and John great thread on 03 NM's. I still have two, #1089025 a mint 1919 NM, (I traded a water heater for it years ago), and the one I shoot #1196714 a 1921 NM with a final NM barrel dated 1927. Nice to know how the 1919 may have been aquired after the matches. Mine was dusty and dirty when I got it 20 years ago and during disassembly and careful cleaning sawdust fell out of the barrel channel.
