4 pounds, 5 ounces unstruck barrel weight. Walter King, WK, someone will tell you what his job was at the factory. "D" for Damascus barrel steel, also stamped on the rib. #2 frame size. Someone will finish up.

That's O.K. - I do restorations on old guns ... I am very used to every flaw being pointed out ... lol

2 More questions if I may ...

What was the factory finish for the Damascus barrels ?

and

Was the Receiver and Trigger Plate Color Case Hardened on these Grade 2 guns ? ... I have seen pictures both ways but have not been able to find a definitive spec to say one way or the other ...
