I wanted to know if anyone has observed or examined a LONGRANGE that had an "L" stamped on the frame water table. The reason I ask this question is that when reading John Houchins book; he notes that, "the letter L was usually, but not always, stamped on the frame water table". (page 300)

I have owned and had the chance to examine quite a few of the LONGRANGE / WILDFOWL guns and I have not seen one yet that had the "L" stamping. Of course my sampling only covers about 50-60 firearms over a few years out of the 2,704 listed LR/WF guns.

If anyone has one with the "L" stamp please post a photo in this link. I will have another LONGRANGE question to pose to the group after hearing back from Dr. Jim!
