    John, is the escutcheon flush with the wood and is the screw that holds the escutcheon on snug and also flush with it.
    Brophy shows the later rectangular style escutcheon, the earlier ones had the banjo style.
    Both styles were used on ejector guns.
    Is there a possibility this for-end is a replacement?
