New owner of an LC Pigeon gun. Double trigger. Ejectors. Pistol grip. Made 1911. Thank you Dr Jim for confirming DOM. A few curiosities- 1) comes with 2nd type barrel stop. 2) Chain damascus 3)PE stamped on forearm iron only. Reading from “The Legend Lives” Houchins mentions 2nd type barrel stop guns are rare. Is there anyway to know how many were made with 2nd barrel stop? I read Houchins’ retraction on this site where he stated in his book that 2nd barrel stops were on extractor guns only. Which he corrected to all 2nd types are on ejector guns. 1214 Pigeon guns made. Any information on how many made with 2nd barrel stop? How many made with chain damascus?
