It looks like it was a 00 Grade, plus the serial numbers never started off as CO, and 594 is not listed. Was the OO every offered with damascus bbls? I had been under the impression it only came with steel bbls. Could be an O, Though. Miller/TN I Didn't Say Everything I Said, Yogi Berra

The 0 acquired London steel in 1907. If it was an employee's gun, it could of course have any barrel. And BTW the sideplate ducks are quite different from those on the Specialty grade More examples here http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/15921276 Last edited by Drew Hause; 09/02/11 09:00 AM. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home

Besides who would want a classic boucing under a pick up seat or knocking through buck brush. Whoever cut it had some special purpose in mind or a burst barrel.
