without any s/n numbers on any components and the non-typical parts for my gun i.e.: the oversized firing pin retainers (possibly made from surplus musket nipples), the oversized trip,the use of Stoaks locks and the frame size being off measurement. so I guess other than the 7735 next to the hallmark its anyones guess as to the actual date of manufacture, which leads me to believe the the "Manufactured For M. Hoag Seneca Falls N.Y. 1869" engraved on the rib may possibly be correct.
I'm disappointed that the missing parts could not be located but I'll keep trying if anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Dave Fejlline is sending the action back today, I'll post pic's when I get it
Thanks for all the help form the members that followed this thread
