Gary,

I don't know. However, the drop points look too full or round compared to other repro DHEs. It may be the way the picture was taken. The gun looks nice with the round knob.

I'm leaning with Dean's opinion that this Repro has been restocked.

However, and as we say "never say never", you may recall our previous discussions here in the forum regarding the upgrading that Greene's Guns had done to several Repros that included changing pistol-gripped guns to half pistol grip (round knob). These Greene-altered Repros also included alterations that the linked gun doesn't have -- such as bone charcoal case coloring, removing the Parker Reproduction and Made in Japan stampings, rebluing the barrels, changing splinter forend shape to Meriden-like, adding mullered borders to the checkering, changing the game scene engravings, hand chasing the scroll engraving and applying an oil finish.
