CTO

[Scott Gentry]

Received letter from Chuck today on a gun and can’t figure out what the “tagged C.T. O. “means, thanks in advance. Gun is exactly per the letter.

[John Knobelsdorf II]

My best guess is: Configure To Order

[Donald F. Mills]

Perhaps:
Combined Transport Operator (CTO) is a logistics service provider that specializes in coordinating and managing the transportation of goods using multiple modes of transport.

[John Davis]

Given the Stock book specifications, sounds like a dedicated competition gun. So something like John’s “configure to order” seems plausible.

[Scott Gentry]

Thanks all, Configured To Order does seem very likely the meaning. Lovely gun that was completely redone by Turnbulls before I became the caretaker.

[Dan Steingraber]

Beautiful straight grip B Grade with a full checkered forend. It doesn't get much better than that.

[Chuck Bishop]

You guys are all wet! C.T.O.is someone's enitials. Substitute the words "to the attention of " for the word "tag". Usually the entry would have the guys last name instead of initials.

[Scott Gentry]

I thought of that but guess I over thunk it, thanks for clearing up. :banghead:
