Bill. Another possibility if the current oval shows nothing after acid etching is to check descendants of original owner. That would take some sleuthing but it’s all a fun game. One of the descendants may have removed the oval as a keepsake. If you luck out and find it still in that family you could beg and plead to have it reunited with the original gun. If that doesn’t work then you could at least get a picture so that the new oval would match the old one. Quite amazing all the possibilities Google can find. Cheers Jack
