Bill,Dean,
Factory letter is included in my first post as a pdf file. Click on it and it should open. Letter states 1931 mfg as is my VHE which is 4 digits lower. I'm inclined to leave pad alone. I looks much worse in the photos than in person. As I am not as much of a collector as I am a shooter this gun will not be shot that much, maybe 1-2 times/year. If someone could tell me what I did wrong with trying to post the PGCA letter I'll try and re-post it tonight.
