Thanks all for the input and help.
He has now joined the Cody Museum and that allows for 40 searches.The one turned up a shipping number and date 1/26/1895, caliber 32-40.Evidently this may well be one of the earliest or perhaps the earliest,32-40 shipped as most where 38-55 when production started
here is a link to the gun,hopefully the letter will also confirm the sights. 1894 -694
