I don't believe there is really any such thing. Every one had anywhere from subtle to major differences. Steve's article in The Double Gun Journal, Volume Twenty-Five, Issue 3, on serial number 7200 and the Bill Headrick article on serial number 13291 in The Double Gun Journal, Volume Fourteen, Issue 2, should give you a good start.

How do you remember that kind of stuff? Sometimes I can't remember where I put my shoes.

Having the Double Gun Journal indexes helps, but it would still take me days to scratch the surface of the stuff Researcher has in his head.

The book Checkering and Carving Gunstocks by Monty Kennedy has an FE type pattern shown. Bobby

Researcher is actually a cyborg!! I believe he is the Terminator sent from SkyNet. No human could retain that much knowledge.
