Roalco, I think, after looking at the Churchill book, that this is a Hercules grade, as it has the EJC monogram on the bottom of the receiver,full coverage tiny scroll, and third bite, with Southgate ejectors, cased in a brass cornered heavy case with early paper Churchill label and all the accessories. it has no grade markings, but the book says that only Churchill's best guns had the EJC monogram engraved on them. What does your catalog say about the Hercules grade? Thanks, Marcus
