Jim, I have one from category 2 and one from category 3.

The TL is serial number 358, and I am going to have to dig it out and look at it to see what rollmarks it may have.

The 2nd model is number 73778. It has the original .455 rollmark, supplemented by .45 S&W, which is rollmarked slightly above and to the right of the original caliber marking.

Both guns have been converted to chamber .45 Colt. The rim thickness problem was solved on the TL by partially counterboring the cylinder and ejector star. On the 2nd model, the problem was addressed by planing the surface of the recoil shield.

The second model has also been converted to a target revolver with the addition of Micro sights, not to mention being reblued. It doesn't look bad for what it is, but it is a long way from being original.
