That gun was delivered to me yesterday. The SN is 30041 and has been confirmed as one of the XXX guns, perhaps the earliest. I'm not sure how Dr. Jim will classify it on the chronology list. It is going to be my winter restoration project. The inlays are missing from the forend and tbe stock is in half at the wrist
