Taking a real longshot here. According to Jim Stubbendieck's recent research letter, two identical 16 ga. Specialty grades (FwEO) were shipped to the B.H. Dyas Corp of Los Angeles in August of 1922; both on order # 5507. They were serial numbers 42777 and 44355. It would seem that the frame and barrels of the two shotguns were switched at the store. I have Frame 42777, and barrel/Forearm 44355. Are the matching out there?
