So after all this conversation what grade is this gun and what is it's value in the current market? It is listed in the serialization book as a Grade 0 with PT barrels. The locks have zig-zag engraving found on late Grade 0 hammer guns and Grade 1 hammer guns. The water table is stamped P which would indicate a Grade 1 hammer gun. Could it be that the only way the order for 34" barrels could be satisfied was to provide plain twist barrels on a Grade 1 gun?
