Several serial number blocks are missing from what remains of the old shipping records. All we can tell you for sure is that your gun shipped sometime between 1898, when the Grade OO gun was introduced, and 1913 when the Grade OO gun was dropped from the model line. The gun should have armour steel barrels; and, if it has auto-ejectors, you will note a metal escutcheon with either a button or release roll on the face of the forearm wood. No metal escutcheon means you have a gun with manual extractors.
