Birmingham seemed to have skipped from HB for 1957 to JB for 1958 missing out IB. Nice gun, by the way. Thanks - it is a nice little gun, and I kinda like the heavier proofs and 2¾" chambers. Rumor has it that they skipped "I" so it wouldn't get confused with "J." I can't think of anything else it'd be. Last edited by Geoff Roznak; 03/04/26 08:04 PM.
