Shipping date for a 1905 HE M&P?

Should be somewhere around 1918 (maybe 1917). The last patent date on the barrel should be December 29, 1914.

That lines up.

I have a 1913 HE .38 with a large logo on the right side. My 1923 HE .44 has a tiny logo on the left side. So they changed before and after the war.
