I remember pictures in a thread by Michael that showed the remainder of the glue. It had an amber color to it and something tells me that it may be as Steve describes as shelac flakes. The ability to remove with the screw underneath makes sense. I have the only Worthen I have ever run on to with the plate intact in the grip. I have never seen another type on a Worthen. It also does not have the ball detent installed. Michael thought that it must have been an early gun and a non-take down. I will try to get a picture or two up. Nice job John!
