It's nice to know that if something breaks down parts from other guns of this vintage and make can be canibalized to fix it. One major hurdle is that at that price it has to compete with many more modern quality guns from Germany, Austria, Spain,.....impossible task.

ellenbr Sidelock Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 12,751 Likes: 525 North Alabama	Originally Posted By: PeteM What is interesting, to me at least, is the diamond mark on the barrel. I had assumed for a long time, this to be the trade mark of SB&Co. But, the more I see it, the less convinced I am about that. The BE looks like an after thought by the "upgrader". Pete That stamp of a diamond/rhombus with "Ludlum" is that of Ludlum Steel Company of Watervilet, N.Y. For the most part I've seen it with the name "Ludlum" in the center but I think I have seen it without. Kind Regards, Raimey rse
