Twin Baby Chiefs, not identical
I finally snapped some photos of 99 and 6855, which I picked up at the Wyoming Weapons Collectors show Memorial Day weekend.
It's quite an honor to have a two-digit serial numbered Chiefs. 99 has a half-round front sight and what I believe is truly the first style flat latch, which is different than what's commonly referred to as the first style. All the numbers match.
All the numbers match on 6855, too. It has a smooth ramp front sight and what's commonly referred to as the first style flat latch.
My second post here will show the latches up close.
Cheers
