1894 DEO
Phil,
Glad to see this fine old gun in committed hands to bring her back.
I spoke with Mr. Semmer on many occasions and the last correspondence that I had from him shortly before his passing was that he had catalogued 44 E Grades and 41 D Grades.
I am sure that you have someone in mind to undertake your stock work, however, you might do a search on the 1894 Remington Pigeon Gun that the American Custom Gunmaker's Guild commissioned a few years ago. The stock although a straight grip has the Arrow Points and cheek checkering of the classic D Grade. The Stockwork was crafted by a friend Doug Mann of St, Anne, IL.
Good Luck and keep us posted.
Will
