    Bradley, if your SN is in the 30800 range it can't be an "O" grade as they were made from 1894-1914. No guns were serial numbered in the 30,000 range from 1895 to 1920. You indicate it is a transition gun so it would be a Quality 1. I suspect that the butt plate says Trap Gun which may be adding to some confusion. Hunter Arms didn't make a Trap grade until 1912. Photos would help someone here to give another opinion. Regards, Tom
