First off, Ron, welcome to the forum. No need to apologize for any photos posted....
A Victory just several hundred before the serial number of your dad's is known to have shipped in October of 1943. Guns without a topstrap marking usually shipped per contracts with the Defense Supplies Corporation or the U.S. Maritime Commission.
Hope this information is helpful to you.
