I have had, and still do, alot of Bellding & Mulll stuff. Everytime I found something new, I'd say to myself "Huh, I never knew they made that" Now I don't say it anymore. They were known to try stuff out before full production, and the stamping looks hand done, as opposed to later line stamping. The knurled retainer looks like it could be them too.
The Marlin-Ballard info is true re PP bullets, but, again, not sure it means that either, as I have had both makers, as well as Remington rifles without reference to chamber differences. I have a Harry Pope 32-40 barrel waiting for the right action. It simply says 32-40. I'd rather get onto my Sharps Old Reliable project, so if anyone wants the Pope barrel, let me know.
I have had inserts, including a pair of Colts, made for a 30" 12ga. in .38WCF.
It's too bad they drilled the rib for those sights. The gun might have realized more had that not been done.
If Nurse Ratchet lets me out of bed, I'll down down and look at some Belding & Mull data I've accumulated
