Opinions on what grade
This gun came to me from one of our fine members in California. I was told it is a "P" grade. I am just curious as to how that is determined. According to our web site, serial #44253, was manufactured in 1884. There is a number "1" above the serial # on the water table. I hope the pictures loaded alright. I could not get a clear pic of the barrel flats w/ numbers. Looking at the flats, chamber end to the right, on the lower flat to the left there is a "3" with a small number 1 or I or l. Just to the right of the number three is a symbol that looks like a small anvil. The flat above to the left is a "+" and two patent numbers, June 25, 1878 and April 11, 1876. A patent date under the serial # is Mar 16, 1875. On the other water table are patent dates of April 11, 1876 and Sep. 3, 1872. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
