Yep Scot, you may have read it here as we've discussed them before on this forum. Although Bachelder and others tweaked standard Repros, I believe it was Greene's Guns that did a little more upgrading to standard D-Grade Repros that included bone charcoal case coloring, removing the Parker Reproduction and Made in Japan stampings, re-bluing the barrels, changing the splinter forend shape, adding mullered borders to the checkering, changing the game scene engravings, hand chasing the scroll engraving and applying an oil finish. Pistol-gripped guns were changed to a half pistol grip (round knob).
