The question I have is is it possible to tell from examining the barrel that the wedge style lug has been removed and replaced with the King lat h lug??? It looks like the wedge lug is longer and there seems to be a longer darker area in the photo of the 15901 barrels. Is that correct? Do you have another example of the wedge to King Latch conversion to see if that idea holds. The reason I ask is because I have a pre 1878 Parker with a King Latch and it doesn't appear That either the barrel of the forfend have been altered from the wedge style.

Your help in answering this question would be greatly appreciated.
