That’s correct Bill,
the barrel currently on the Curtis Try gun is not the original, it is on face but was never fitted properly. I’ve tried different Flues barrels on it and I was surprised how the contour of where the barrel meets the action varies very much from one gun to the next.

I’ve included a few pictures of a Grade 6 Flues with some close pictures of the engraving and the different inlays. This gun was restocked and recase colored as it was pretty poor condition when I bought it.
The white/silver inlay seems to be much lighter than my other guns with Silver inlay, could it be white Gold?
