1st post here, ty for having me here to your group.. have looked at the serial guide that was posted here for 20 gauge DBL sterlingworth. My gun under the forearm reads model 1911 with a 560XX 5 digit serial #. That also matches the hand scribed # on the bottom side of trigger guard. I find nothing under 200,00 on the guide. Ty for your assistance.

The Model 1911 were all 12-gauge Sterlingworth guns. The "Model 1911" marking began appearing at about 531xx and was gone by 61xxx.
