Re: Barrel Marking?

one more question, is it common to see that marking on other 12gauge sw foxes? Just wondering if it adds to the 'value' of the gun? Not planning on selling at all just wanted to know if ive got something more rare to brag about or if ALL silverworths have these markings. thanks Reasearcher,

Re: Barrel Marking?

Its a Sterlingworth circa 1926, so does that mean that the gun was not made in phily pa?
Is it rare to find a stamp like this on sterlingworths?

Wondering if anyone knew what marking is that is above the D-3, above the barrel flats. Is it a number or letter or symbol? What does it mean?
