Bruce...in the picture of the top of the barrels at the breach I see a round dot that looks like a filled screw hole? I know its not but why is it there? I had a early VH 16 with that exact dot??? thanks Kenny

Kenny,What you see in that picture is the business end of the screw that helps hold the dollshead rib extension.

Kenny,
That’s the screw that holds in place the rib extension. The rib matting usually hides it. On some early guns I've seen them with a flower engraved there.

You beat me again Dave.
