What do you look for to tell whether or not its been cut. Some are pretty obvious.

#1, a PGCA letter. #2, examine the blank space in the rib matting at the muzzle.

#3 Look for evidence of steel keels beneath the top and bottom ribs.

Could you guys post some pics of cut vs not? So this rookie knows what he's looking at. I think they're cut but still full anf full. But i don't know

Search the forum on the topic, you will find a lot of results.

What is the grade? Anything above a trojan will have the matting terminate before the end of the rib.

The PGCA letter is almost a sure thing. Someone will post a picture of the barrel keels and blank space at the end of the rib.
