Default Grade

Take a look at the locks with a magnifying glass. If you can see the individual engraving cuts it is probably a grade two. If not it is an interesting question; there are some guns in the 10000 - 20000 range that have rollmark engraving. I have one 18122 that has the same locks, a G type circle on the frame with a winged rabbit in the center, and barrels marked plan twist that look like damascus. I would say that grading in a case like this goes with the barrel roll mark.

Best, Austin
