No sir it is not model marked. .

That's kind of how I'm trending Ken.

Thank you sir this was literally looking in the right place at the right moment. I've been on a Pre War binge this year and had kind of tabled a hard search for one of these. I guess the best things appear when you're not actually looking for them?

Thank you sir. I’m not sure yet. 🤔 I have two other shooters in my collection and this one is pretty pristine.

Serial number and box

I’ve been looking for a late 50s, high-condition, 38/44 Heavy Duty to add to my collection for a while now and finally scored. I’m not sure this has been fired as the strike plate, bore, and cylinder face are perfectly clean. Stocks number to the gun and the box has the serial number on it...

Shipped May 1904 according to Dr. Jinks. 120 years old. Stunning.

That’s super interesting. So how in 1904 does one insure that charcoal is 830-850 degrees? Was that just by knowing the color of the coals that well or was it measured with some kind of temperature gauge of the era? It’s really amazing that something was that precisely executed back then.

Man I really love the 1899s and am actively hunting one!

You know if the ship date is 1904 that would put her at a grand 120 years old. Pretty stunning when you think of it? Thank you sir. She does do nice glamour shots.

Gary you’re an erudite fellow! 😁

Taxonomy is a word that tastes good to say.

Larry I appreciate you looking out for me sir!😂😂

Thank you sir.🙏🏽

Jack thank you I appreciate that info.

David thank you so much for that very helpful information. Curiousity got the best of me and I measured the barrel. Really good eye sir as it’s 6 1/2”. Is that an uncommon length in a 1902?

Ahh okay. Thank you sir. That’s the first time I’ve seen it and I have several other pre war guns that I haven’t noticed it on. It’s super cool learning about these old guns.
