Whatever, the "comb bolt" is, it was probably in the original stock. The information in la84foundation documents would indicate that Peterson was a salesman rather than a high average competitior. He shot many shoots each year throughout the midwest, placing in the middle of the pack. The order for the gun through Peters Cartridge Company indicates that he probably represented their brand. He was still shooting 1500 or more targets per year through the end of WW1. I haven't investigated to find out when he dropped off the competition circuit.
