I think what chief was refering to was an area where the bbl's were stored after finishing --- at first I thought there was a dirt floor.

GUNSMITH ----Tom came to Colt factory as a guess of mine to see how some polishing was done. I passed him off as a cuz so he could get in. Next time you see him, give him my best regards and tell him I still,own #999 that he sent me & it's the best shooting rifle I have ever owned. Also, I was at the NRA show in Salt Lake when Elmer and Bob Steindler stopped by for a talk -- they also sied it was the best out of the box rifle they had ever owned. FWIW, Ken
