That's interesting David. Thank you. That had not occurred to me about the proof stamp being Remington era. This gun is brand new to me, so I'm still learning about it. I read the date codes as: XD3 (1935), WF3 (1937) and DJ3 (1940). I wonder if the gun could have been finished out of sequence as the serial number is 200xxx, supposedly a 1922 number. It could have been re-barreled during the Remington years. I wonder if Remington would have re-proofed and stamped if they did something like lengthen the chambers. I don't have the letter yet, so we'll see what it says.

Mr. Fritzke, I apologize if I took your thread down a rabbit hole.---Matt
