one very specific reason i hope to see this guns dom established, is the fact that it would set a milepost to help determine the age of robusts....if it is a 32-S - that was only made in 1930, then we could associate that 114,551 serial number with the year 1930.

as it is the only solid date that can be depended on with robusts, is 1931 - when guns were marked with both earlier and later designations.

best regards,

tom
