Thanks for the photo. That M14-3 is quite striking looking. But, as before, I'm having doubts whether that finish is original. The advice you were given about looking for the N is good. It might also be on the rear face of the cylinder. I know they were still putting them there on the 19-3 as late as 1976.

A letter will tell you for sure whether this gun shipped with a nickel finish. If it did, it is a very rare bird indeed.
