This is what I can tell you with my limited knowledge. An O grade was considered a pre 1913 LC Smith. During the transitional period serial numbers starts at 30K and 1892 sounds about right. Log on to the LC website forum and ask their members to confirm. I'm sure they will help you out.

Did you request a confirmation letter Sam?

My confusion is because Smith site indicates that the earliest production of the 0 Grade was 1894. I am a member and need to do the letter. I'm hopeful that they will clear things up. All markings and serial numbers match on the whole gun. We're certain of what we have but the the numbers... Thanks again. |

1894 is correct Sam. Dr. Jim's "L.C. Smith Production Records" lists 66 No. O guns produced that year. It is possible that the frame was stamped earlier, then used for the new No. O. A Research Letter would clarify the date of completion.
