Hey Rick. I cannot speak for All American gun makers but I certainly believe that the big five did. Even if they did not it is a certainty that the owners of today would have them timed, right or wrong we like them timed.
I had a local electrician wire a new barn project for me about a month or so ago. Upon completion I was looking over his work and I noted that all of the covers had the screws timed in the same manner. I sort of have a new admiration for him now
