Now, Edgar. If you sell that gun, I don't want to see you advertising it as "numbers matching".
Who is going to answer an ad for an all original but non matching number gun?

Must have been a "Monday" gun.

Robert, I'm guessing in 1893, Sundays were for the family, and saloons were closed. On the other hand, times were improving then from their last 'depression' and they may have been working half days on Saturday, after a night out Friday.
